I'm sort of surprised GJ didn't do NW first since they seem to like P+W power 757s more than R-R ones.

I'll be getting this Icelander tho.

This doesn't help male travel agents shake off the stereotypical image that people have of them, eh Karl!!!

This is one helluva release. Absolutely beautiful. It's a must have for me.

This thing is always fun to watch down at Heathrow and I look forward to the day that they put this baby in to scheduled service on the Glasgow flights.

Great plane and an absolutely STUNNING new livery! Bravo Gemini/Schuco!

very nice choice of GJ.....

Personally, i like DW's mould more than GJ's however, i dont know why DW doesnt release this since they have the mould already.

I love this livery! Gemini did a wonderful job on it; this is definately gonna be my 1st B757-300.



These are Gemini's Schuco releases, but I am sure 1 of the releases will hopefully be part of Gemini's February releases.
