Dammit Delftblue, you´re always ahead! Where do you always get that info? I found nothing on the HERPA website!

Anyway, that little DBA-Baby fits perfectly into my collection, although it´s AGAIN Boeing (but thanks to Star Jets we´ll get some Airbusses, too) and AGAIN eurowhite (btw, who invented this phrase?).

Here´s a pic of the real one:

Deutch BA - Eurowhite ?

Perhaps not - about three quarters of the lower body is black - and look at that tail...

No, the new "Swiss" scheme THAT is Eurowhite - I dare day if you love all things Swiss you'll buy it straight away - some people may buy it for "historic" reasons - some people are plain and simple "completists" and need to have it. Me, I might just go for it as its a new scheme - doesn't do a great deal for me I must admit though.

I wonder where this "Eurowhite" thang came from too - some of you Yankees seem to use it in derogatory terms ( I can see why !). The same people who no doubt wetted their pants when Jet Blue/Gemini decided to release those A320's...

As regards the Deutch BA 737-300 - I'll get it - will look good along side the LH 737-300 and US Airways 737-400.

Ok, but I usually watch my models from above, so it seems eurowhite to me.

But to be honest - you´re right, there´s more than white on the plane.
