Default 200 scale NW Orient diecast metal models

I would like something done in the NW Orient (silver, red, black) in 200 scale and diecast metal only. Who should I contact to get this done? I know Inflight LE did the DC 9 - not sure if this is still out there. I would prefer a DC 10 or 727. I know that there is the NW IF 200 707 but I was thinking along the lines of a custom NW Orient (bare metal scheme) in the LE series as opposed to another IF 200 707. Any help? thank you

Okay, now I must ask. Never owned a Hogan. Are they all diecast metal like the Inflights? If so, how do they compare to the Inflights?

Well that kind of sucks...they don't make a mainstream NW DC-3 but a one off that had probably been sold to the UK.

Doing a little more research this plane never flew for Northwest. It was leased from Air Atlantique and painted in NW colors for a marketing tour. It never flew line assignment or pax for NW. Again that sucks out of everything NW flew they pick this one....
