Looks excellent. Was this a snap-on model kit or like the Revell with 100of small piece to glue together.

looks great.. just like Mr.Edward Cox Model for fs2004!! i love the lahore tail more than Thar tail!

at last some people are replying here. GOOD. now this model isnt a snap-fit model like the revell these are diecast models already assembled together by the manufacturer company i.e. Phoenix

yes i definately prefer this tail than the sindh one. the lahore tail goes well with the rest of the fuselage whereas the sindh tail doesnt really.

this should be released during september or end of september thats what i have heard. as this is the september Phoenix releases and they may be more you never know

Thanks for the heads up Samee. I have a Desert Tail version of phoenix so i will definitely buy this one when it comes out. It is moulded in excellent quality but due to negligence mine came with a bent nose gear which i successfully pushed back in place. The desert tail version was AP-BAK and this one looks like its going to be AP-BFW

Yes this release is with reg AP-BFW.

Apart from the wing probes, the slight bent angle engines and the downward shaping windows at the nose, it looks pretty good. The texture are also very good - will pick this up and the DW version too if they dont mess up on the colours!

PK777, doesnt it look odd if you have the two same aircraft models (same reg) next to each other but different model manufactureres (DW AND PX).

PK777, how are you going to set these models im thinking of putting the DW PIA's together and the PX also. have you got any ideas? also you could have the DW PIA's next to the same PX one but on the stand with gears in i.e. inflight.
i would love to buy them all but am a little confused of how to display them

a good model - barring the bent windows and dissapointing engines.

looks AMAZING...

samea380...you should really considering have a party so we can see your model collection

below pic of flag and this time has the white stripe on it. i have to say the reg "AP-BFW" Colour is wrong it needs to be black. but never mind. also the blue colour on the tail is more like purple its meant to be black/blue

overall a great release

about party saad i have not yet got a massive PIA collection yet only 18 so far should be 21/22 in a few weeks. lol but will consider im a partying lad.
