Hogan Polar Air Cargo 747-400F

torque · 08-06-2005, 12:15 PM

I saw one in the Narita airport on display, but it is not for sale. Does anyone know where I can purchase one?

torque · 08-09-2005, 12:55 AM

Hmmm, ok. How about does anyone have a link to the manufacturers website? I have looked all over for a Hogan Airplane model website with no luck. It is like they don't exist.

Thanks!

Hello? Anyone, Bueller,? Anyone?

Mike777 · 08-12-2005, 08:00 PM

Haha, Bueller. Ferris Bueller... good movie! Sorry, I can't help with your question though.

I know i saw one on ebay recently. The seller already posted it twice but never got sold. I'll see if i could find it for you. Probably the seller still has it

Torque, try this site:http://www.socatec.aero/store/USaccueil.tpl

Hope this helps

Thanks for the help, I will check out that link!

I just wish I could contact Hogan directly somehow. It seems like they have no website, or address, or telephone number. What a strange company. For as big as they are, you would think they had a physical address someplace.

The reason I would like to contact them is this: I know they have made at least one Polar 747-400F and I would like to see if they would make another. I can't believe that they would have only made one copy of this airplane. It was a great model, the turbine blades spun, the cockpit windows were clear, and it had the landing gear that could be removed.

Ok, so since I am having no luck with the Hogan route:

Does anybody know of ANY Polar Air Cargo 747-400F models available by any website or manufacturer?

Thanks in advance....

upbnsfrrfan · 08-16-2005, 02:01 AM

Are we talkin 1/200 only????

torque · 08-16-2005, 03:10 AM

Well, I want one that has a stand and can be used as a desk model, so I would rather not have anything too much smaller than 1:200.

upbnsfrrfan · 08-16-2005, 10:46 AM

If you don't mind resin models check out the one by Atlantic Models:

They are kinda pricey, but that's the only Polar models that i know. No landing gear tho and is a one piece thing

Cheers,
Larry

Just wondering... why Polar Air Cargo?

SMBC · 08-16-2005, 03:30 PM

Man that brings back memories, i was working for a loading company here in DTW, we were loading stamped side panels of cars onboard a Polar Air 747, the lower cargo hold's automated track was inop so we were pushing the skids in by hand and i stepped in a hole in the floor and grabbed a raw steel edge of a car body and took off a couple of fingers. Its all good now, a great doctor fixed me up. One things for sure, inside of a gutted whale is very big! It was huge in there without all the seats and stuff!

Mike777 · 08-16-2005, 06:10 PM

Holy crap, SMBC!

Glad to hear you are doing better, SMBC. At least you've got a story to tell now!

Because I fly that plane for that company.

Thanks for the tip on the Atlantic model company. They look pretty nice, maybe I will have to just get one of those.

Thanks again guys!
