Default Convair 880 ?

Heard a rumor from retailer of a new release of Convair 880. Shortly(month or so) . Unable to reveal livery info. Has anyone heard any thing.

Default Convair 880/990

Word is that Aeroclassic's will be releasing both in the not to distant future. Personally I want to see an Alaska 880 and 990 in their Golden Nugget livery.

Mr Klein and Aero Classics have long been rumored to be in the works on a CV880 or CV990 mould....after his excellent work with his other subjects, we can only hope the rumors are true!

If Andrew Klein has his hand in the Model, we will be looking at a Great Model....the 880s and 990s come in many "flavors" which I believe includes UA, DL, TW, NE, WA, AA and as ChrisHNL has already mentioned Alaska in I believe a few liveries.

CAN'T WAIT TO SEE.....

Folks, do not confuse the 880 with the 990, they were two different designs ... three airlines operated both models (Alaska, Northeast, Swissair), United operated neither but had looked into the 880.

I'm hoping for a TW 880. DL, NE had 880's and AA had 990's. But obviously, from other post others had them also. Will be waiting anxiously to see!
