just to see what the complaints are all about. dont worry, ill smuggle on board some water just in case i get stuck on the ramp trapped for 3 hours. i cant really give up 10E tickets now can i? haha. getting over to europe is already costing me a fist load of cash

no one said you couldnt take water on board. all you need to do is pour it out at the security checkpoint and fill it back up inside at a soda dispenser or something. go figure

Are you like backpacking through Europe? That would be a really fun thing to do. Who are you flying with to get over there(Airline)?

That model is tempting and the mould is great, but knowing PP's record of wonky cockpit windows ala KLM 737-800 is whats holding me back, even though its available quite cheap. As for the shady winglets, thats what an emery board is for. You've done so many mods on these models, whats a pair of winglets?

well its hard to do anything with winglets that are already decorated. it means i need to put in the extra effort to either do decals for it (which can take HOURS) or paint it by hand which may make it look unprofessional.

i have no doubts that gemini will release one in the future and thats what im banking all my beans on right now.

Hmmm GJ.....you never know. There's Phoenix too. But then again look at the price difference.

Yes, but PH only has the B733 and B734 molds so far. Although FR had those types in their fleet in the past, I don't think it will sell as good the B738(WL), unless you're implying that PH might be introducing new B737 molds.

I concur since GJ did release a FR model in 1:250. That means that they do have the licencing to do so or at least have prior contact with FR regarding licencing rights to produce an FR model.
