Moin, do you have a closet for all of these? Its gotta take up a sizeable amount of space in your place...

Closet? I have a whole room. Just let me get back, get hold of a good photographer and then see what I come up with.

Ha ha, finally got me a DW AA 777-200. Now the only major US carrier missing in 1/400 is NW. I'll see what to do there.

Also got these rare examples:

AC Aer Lingus (60's colors) 707-300C
GJ Viasa DC-10-30
DW VC-25A 747-200 AF 1
DW USAF 757-200 AF 2

Also looking into a PX Gulf Traveller 763 and AC Iberia Super Connie.

I don't like the DW 767's except the 767-400. Other than that the 762 and 763's noses are too blunt. The PX version is still better.

Got the AC Iberia Super Connie

I had a look at the PX, but the noise was way too pointy for my liking, so gave it a pass. The DW looked slight better so I went for that.

Geminijets is making a NW 787 in 1:400...

that looks neat ... lol resembles a mixture of the nose of the A380 and the wings of the T7LR ...

The 787 is too premature for my 'airport'.
