Nice!! Hope that we do see this one soon!

But I'm curious. What is your connection to the hobby? Why or how to do you get so many samples?

Good to see you looking better than ever, CV!

On a side note, they make these these called 'q-tips' which are much more nasal friendly.

I just figured tiny jihadists had hijacked your model and crashed it into your face.

That "nose to nose" photo is priceless! I like it! Good to see your handsome mug since AI LAX, hee hee! I like the Sunrise Livery on the 747-8 and looking forward to seeing the actual production model in the future. Thank you for posting the pics above. T7

ER Doctors have extracted lots of different things from patients I'm sure. A B747 has to be a 1st. On a serious note,the sunrise livery is beautiful.

If you are on facebook and like JC wings or "follow" you would see this question
"Awesome. When will the 747-8i be ready?Like · Reply · 1 · 18 September at 20:12

and the reply

JC Wings In couple of months later,we are working on another new mould at the moment
Like · 2 · 18 September at 23:15

I would guess the 747-8 early 2015 as JC are working & focusing on their new improved 747-4
