Another must have, but that mould doesn't look too good.

I like the livery, don't like the model. Maybe Big Bird, Dragon Wings, or Aerclassic will make one.

AeroClassics does not do 767 models anymore.
There is however, an Ethiopian B.720B enroute!

Is there any possiblility that you will sell the 767 mould to GJs? I know they will use it and it blows every other 767-300 mould out of the water. Are you reading this GJs?

You just made my day, Andrew, I was hoping for this one or a 732. Any chance of this hitting the shelves before years end?

That's going to be beautiful. The old Ethiopian was such a hot livery.

...the 767 mould shown on the photo is not the known GJ one, with that strange nose section it looks like the old Tucano 767 mould - just horrible!

So, if I remember my Lunar calander (I'll have to double check with a friend at work on that) I guess we are looking at early to mid Jan, huh? Well it will give me some time to save my pennies.

Thanks again,

Thomas

This livery is LONG overdue - what it took so long for anyone to do it amazes me! Have wanted this for years, and in spite of mould not being perfect, am going to buy - this one and Aeroflot.

Arrow I saw their ticket counter at Kilimingaro Airport!

Will need to get this after seeing the company there and that this plane they operated at that time. The Aero Classics 720 sounds great.

HeHe, that was exactly what I've expected

-Sell a model under the brand "Tucano" and 100% say "pass this
CRAP"
-Sell the same model under the brand "Phoenix" and 95%
say "pass on this Tucano-CRAP"
-Sell the same model under the brand "Gemini Jets" and rate drops to 50%. Well, that's what I'd call wise marketing strategies


BTW: Aeroflot nc and this one are top of my list for a BB mould release...

I wonder if GJ will "fix" the exit doors over the wings on the Ethiopian and Aeroflot models before relase?

Default Holy Halie Selassie!

Its nice to see some African releases come through. Looks like an interesting livery, and again it would have been nicer on a BB400 mould (love that Asiana), but hey it looks like its the Salute to the 763 month at GJ.
