My airliner model collection! Stunning Beauties!

Post by Osman »

Erroneously got posted in the World hobby forum! I wanted it here!

Aslamulaikum Everyone! You will now view my airliner collection, almost all in the 1/200 and 1/250 scale. Enjoy!

The Big bird of Emirates B777 , Awesome and damn accurate!

Image

Etihad A380 is the latest addition!

Image

Image

Image

The Saudia widebodies (Long Prosper models bought on SV flight)

Image

My favourite livery on my favourite aircraft (GF Tristar and A340)

Image

Image

Image

Boeing 747-400s (Wooster models)

Image

Image

Air France, (Oldest model in my collection is the B747-100 from IMC found it boxed in my Grandmas suitcase many years after her death!)

Image

They look great together (SIA B747, Wooster was gifted by my Uncle who runs a Travel Agency in Lahore, Empress Rd)

Image

Kuwait Airways old treasure set (Got them from Father-in Law after he retired from Kuwait Airways, Jeddah. Imagine my anguish when he told me that he had dumped much larger KU A310 and B747 models in the Office Store as no one wanted them!!! )

Image

I need many more :lol:

Image

KLM old and new , got both from Ebay!

Image

Thanks for viewing!

I recently lost an Etihad A330 in mail transit otherwise it would had almost completed my Etihad fleet :(
I love to collect plastic model kits like the Hasegawa Love liner series but they are too expensive and require a lot of effort and skill to complete.

I dont know why but I have noticed that scale IMC/Wooster/LP models of B777, 747, 767 and A330/40 seem to be quiet accurate but A300s, DC-10s, C130s and B737s, A320s are far more accurate in plastic kit moulds.

So far all these are neatly packed up in a huge box well guarded against any "surprise attack" by my little sons :wink:

Excellent collection. If you're into 1/200 models then you should definately check out the models made by Hogan Wings and Skymarks/Risesoon (your EK 773 was made by them). Most of them come with landing gears and spinning engines and are very reasonably priced. If you need any help fnding a good retailer let me know.

Here you can see pics of my collection which I constantly update:

Moin where did you buy the PPC PIA A310 models ? Could you please provide me the address of the retail shop because before viewing these I thought that PPC Holland had shut production and its plant was taken over by Wooster (UK) ! I would love to add PIA A310s in 1/200 scale! Thanks!

I just recieved my skymarks PIA B777-200LR/ER. Not only does it have a landing gear with the 2 tails (Thar & Lahore) but it's engine turbo fans also spin! It's very similar to my hogan 737-800 in terms of scale & quality.
