Where is the British Airways DC-10 in the Landor livery?!?!?! I do like the Aloha 737-700 and the Eastern DC-10 "Real Metal" though.

The Aloha and America West sound nice. But other than that this list isn't too much to my liking. Now for a question,

Where are all the BA's?!?! (Like the Landor Dc-10 and 777, the 727 two pack and the BA Asia new colors)

Have to agree with BA. Landor tails would be nice.

sounds like a VERY cool bunch of releases, the US Navy 737 sounds interesting, but would have loved to see some new moulds, I suppose GJ is saving those for the Xmas season......

Eastern utilized DC-10-30s (three of them) beginning in the mid-1980s MIA-LGW. It was short-lived and dropped not long after Frank Lorenzo took over Eastern Airlines.

Well, nice releases all......but I think I 'll pass on all the above, which is a first. Nothing here really excites me.

I agree with the others.........BRING ON THE BA's,

I will make sure to get two of these:
The Delta and one or even both of the Eastern 10.
Doc Chicken-didn`t Eastern also fly the DC10 to Frankfurt?

This so-called 'hobby' is gearing more and more to the Retro lovers... the rest of us have to pick thru the Scraps!! Pathetic List...
Delta Express is a must for me (at least a couple of those) and the Navy is way Cool... but the rest? Scrap Metal

Good point, Spidy.... Also, where's the BA 777 'Landor'?... We've been craving that one for eternity (it seems)... A NWA DC-10-40 (n/c) would've been MUCH NICER instead of that old relic Eastern!!! (just my opinion, tho)

Default Eastern DC-10
Eastern operated the DC-10 between MIA-LGW after they were acquired by Texas Air Corp. I beleive the aircraft were CO DC-10s. They may have also operated into "deep" South America, i.e., EZE, but not sure. I think they only operated two.

Yes, I do understand that this plane was the very first 737 made and the last to be sold.

how did you get that picture, the releases are still not up on GJ's website. Anyone have pictures of the other releases? I was just looking at the releases and noticed that all but one model, GJSWR268 SWISSAIR DC-8-40, are from the United States. I was a little surprised that they would have a majority like that.

Question
Does the C-40 have blended winglets?
I'm surprised Aloha didn't have them installed on their -700s since their benefits are in the long-range dept.
