Default Nostalgair Models Australia

Hi, can someone tell me what happened to Nostalgair Models made in Australia.

They were the solid fuselage type, usually in plain white boxes.

I have a few interresting models from them in my collection.

East West 727
Air Vanuatu Australian colours 727
Ansett Australia southern cross tail, 737-300
TEAL, Electra
Pan AM DC-6

Any news on their prop range would be good.

very simple answer... they along with scalecraft went out of business years ago..It you are still looking for Nostalgair models my friends at Diecast Scale Models Including Gemini Jets, Dragon Wings, Herpa Wings, Phoenix Models, Aero Classics, Hogan Wings still has a few in stock... other then the aircraft types you listed they also made a nice L1049 Constellation as well...

I once bid on an AA Electra by Nostalgair on eBay, and lost the auction because I was on a trip somewhere. You never know, check eBay every now and then and they turn up. I'm still waiting for another AA Electra, though!

Hi, I used to work for Nostlagair in Australia about 10 years ago. I recently sold 12 aircraft on eBay including several L188 Electras, 727's, 737's, a 767-300ER and rare NAMC YS-11's. I currently have 4 727's for sale on eBay under the username jonathon050972. I have only kept 2 Ansett 727's and a L1049 "CONNIE" for myself. I think the company may still be operating in the town where I live [Penrith,N.S.W],but may be operating under another name-possibly "Modelair ". I will try and find out for you and let you know.

Jonathon.

Are these Nostalgair models any good? Well detailed? Or they much like Flight Miniatures models?
