Ok judging by these pics I'm afraid I'll have to pass. The models, especially the CX 77W is very inaccurate and has many flaws. The cockpit windows are all wrong, its a 777-300 not a 777-300ER, the engines are poorly made and the model has no registration.

Being made of wood, I'll say they're a pretty good job, but lack alot of accuracy and correctness.

I would have to agree. The speedmarqe on the 321 is also inacurate, as well as the cockpit windows. Obviously, a lot of work has gone into the making of these models, but for aviation enthusiasts like me, accuracy and attention to detail is the key.

Aviation world has wooden made models of airliners and they cost over a hundred dollars.

I think you may be referring to Bader Models. Good quality, but again, they fall short of the details that at least I look for in a model. Here are a few pictures:

Yes bader models aern't that great either. They've just been hyped up by some people.

Wooden models are not great. I have a PIA B747-300 made from the manufacturer you are talking about Hamad. And believe me they are not of great quality. The handpainting is average, mould- ok....

trust me....

best to look for Pacific Minatures PIA i know there are floating around somewhere.

^This company is Risesoon/Skymarks.

They do Custom orders, but IN LARGE QUANTITIES. Like 100 pieces....etc NOT INDIVIDUAL MODELS.

Moin · Post by **Moin** » Thu Apr 10, 2008 8:03 pm

Yes this other company is Risesoon that also produces models under the name of Skymarks and I have the QR and SV models. They only produce in bulk and only when an airline places an order with them, not otherwise.

YES YOU ARE RIGHT!
How is the quality of the QATAR AIRWAYS???

99 Euro's for those Skymarks aka Risesoon models??? Well you may not know it but that 'friend' of yours is making a good $100 in between as middleman. Those models are less than half that price being quoted.

I got the QR 773ER for $50, the SV 744 for $65 and 744F's of TNT, Jade Cargo, Great Wall, Atlas Air, KLM Cargo and Air China Cargo, all for b/w $45 and $50 each directly from Taiwan. The quality is very good but Hogan is still better in many respects. The EK 744 is available from the EK souvenir strores in DXB for $35.
