Inflight Delta 747 and United 747

DINO · 10-28-2005, 10:20 PM

Just curious, as to what everyone thinks about the upcoming Inflight United and Delta 747's. Are you picking one up? I'm curious as to what kind of releases these may be. Will they move fast like the Pan Am's, or more like the BOAC, Eastern. Any thoughts?

Yes, they will move very fast. Keep your eyes peeled.

Even though I don't collect either of those two liveries that United looks to be a very beautiful model...even if its displays in a case by itself. As for the Delta, I can only summize that a lot of folks purchased the 'limited inflight' Delta models and would most welcome this new addition being the 747, to go along with the inflight DC-10, 727, and DC-9.

UAL 744..when????????????????/

Flying Ace · 10-29-2005, 10:22 PM

Delta is a popular airline, and i had this one on preorder but on reconsideration backed have backed out due to the the size of the 747 and that Delta really isn't all that historically significant of a line as compared to others. It came down to space considerations for me and other aircraft examples out there present and anticipated that led me to this decision.

But the UAL 744 has potential to have great accuracy, and one that I look forward to, even though the scheme is not one I am particularly enthused about.

Does anyone know what price is the UAL 747-400? I haven't seen any place taken preorders yet with pricing. Does anyone one know who's got the best price on this item?

I'm plowing for the United 747-400 this year,
and the Pan Am 747-100 next year,

just hope they get the globe on the tail (its size, location and font) for PAN AM 747 right

I was very disappointed with the big bird release in September, just hope the inflight version doesn't suffer the same fate....
