Question Displaying Inflight 200s

Just wondering if Inflight has in mind of creating some sort of stand to display their beutiful models. I enjoy planes sitting on the ground, but would prefer them in the air where they belong.

Well a plane is rarely in the air with it's gear down but no flaps.

No flap landings - limited to Concorde and the Tu-144 to the best of my knowledge. NOT recommended otherwise!

Cheers!

I recently purchased a United DC-8 Inflight 200 model from ebay, and I asked the seller directly if there were any stands available for these beautiful models. He/She told me that because these models were so large and heavy, there were no display stands available. Personally, I'd love to see display stands for these as well!

Welcome to the forums I must say. Also, you should call me sometime. WE could go spotting.

Thanks for the welcome! I'm definitely happy I found this forum (and a little upset that it took so long).
