Unhappy

Not really 'up to par' compared to the last few months releases IMO, but honestly, the awesome releases had to stop sometime eh?

I may buy either the Qantas or the TACA, though I'll probably just catch up on some earlier releases instead....

Exclamation

.... Did anyone notice the QF has a framed cockpit? Hopefully they'll fix it before production like they did with the BMI.

Here's a pic of the 1:1 version http://www.airliners.net/open.file/372794/L/

Save for the TACA A319, nothing really exciting (and even the TACA is not that thrilling, I just need it for my collection). I concur with KJC as it looks like most of my budget for this month will be heading to the bank accounts of Mr.Klein and Warner.

QANTAS will be bought for certain, but anything Sabena or Swiss is a waste. (Solbelair's close enough--regardless of what it says, I know whose tail that is) DW/Tucano have provided us with all the Swiss and Belgian planes we'll ever need. (Except for 743's and A310's--we could use some of those).

PS--note to GJ: Most Airbuses have painted cockpit window frames. Thus, they should not be silver. Please assume for most releases that the cockpit windows do not have silver frames---like the Taca A319.

The Alaska 73G is a must. The rest don't fit my LAX or LHR motif, so I'll have to pass, though they are nice.

As for Swiss, get them while they're still in business. They might be collectors items when the carrier disappears.

I dunno Phil, I have seen a BBJ at LAX before, and they are more than capable of trans-Atlantic flights.

From a Pot maker!

Anyway, great another Alaska. Like the others too. Nice QANTAS. Fourth QANTAS so far from Gemini.
