This is made by PPC in Holland. I got one in the UK about 10 years ago but eventually gsave it away as I didn't like the mould.

Its interesting to note that the Jinnah Terminal Duty Free had several of these models for sale in their shop back in the 90's alongwith the SV Tristar. I bought the SV Tristar but didn't like this.

Exactly where I was looking for them about 10 years ago! They not only had SV but an array of other snap fit aircraft models I remember seeing BA, SV, CX and SQ. However, today they are no longer stocked... :(

recieved this model today looks good. though it is a bit yellowish as decals and that is common due to its age!

but overall good price!

Oh, this has decals? The one I got was printed on, which was the revised version.
