Opposite of the LH from GJ this month: great jet, but the livery says "pass".

A detail that might be useful to have in the remarks is that this aircraft is leased from Air Atlanta (which will help to explain its Icelandic rego; TF-AMA or AMB)

I love Iberia for my fleet, but I will wait for AC 743 & 744 for future release.

5stars is Philip Choi, working mostly in 1/500 scale out of High-Speed factory, using former Starjets moulds.

His latest foray into 1/400 scale is in co-operation with Johnny Lo, Johan Chan, Jimmy Wu, and the other gentlement behind Blunutz/C&C.

Even if I was looking for an Iberia 747-400, I probably wouldn't buy this model. Look at how the stripes curve up at a near-ninety degree angle. Judging what's visible on the tail, it seems to be a model of TF-AMA.
