Well, first, most model manufacturers are USA-based.
Second, they cater to a mostly American market.
Third, no US airline utilized any of these airframes.
Which is why we have an AC/BB, a DW, a GJ and even a HW 767, three different 777s and A340s but zero Tridents (which I, too, would love to see).
You are welcome.
