Yeah, I know the picture quality isn't all that great. I'm working on it, though.

My mom bought it on eBay for me, and I gave her the money I owed her out of my savings. Interestingly enough, my dad actually flew on this reg on an ORD-MIA business trip last month.

It was my first 320. Unfortunately GJ did a poor job on the cockpit (they improved later), but I keep it because of the livery.

Is it just me, or does it look a little like a decal instead of printing? You can see a clear outline around the cockpit windows in the fourth picture.

"Ted" conjures up images of rock'n rollers in England in the 50s. Or a politician from Massachusetts that everybody seems to castigate.

Mystere I like your tag photo. There is a neat vintage display model of that Latecoere. The subject would make a great die cast!

(Hey I just hit 3,000 posts!)

Yeah it does happen once in a while....when new post whore's like yourself join up, and lay 25 posts a day all over every single section of this forum. It's always a 14 year old though. Your 23? Impressive!
The good thing is, because your such a post whore, you'll eventually tire of it burn out, and probably won't be back. I'm giving it 3 to 6 months. Now take a break from DAC for 5 minutes....table 47's coke needs a refill waiter-boy.

This one. If your an old member, what the hell is wrong with signing in under your old username? 7 days and 156 posts? Thats not post whoring? You resurected a 5 month old thread to say the following:"IMHO I understand Uni Air (of China), but simply calling it "Uni" as opposed to "Ted" is ridicolous.." When the guy that posted it in the first place was just joking. I didn't start the initial argument with you because your a post whore....If your going to bring up an old thread, at least make it interesting. Thats all! You DO contribute, I'll give you that....your "my collection" video is some fine work. The background music is awe inspiring. Some of the best home video I've ever seen! Welcome BACK son!!!

As creator of the thread, I must side with Dylan. Going back on topic, though:

Yikes! I guess this qualifies me as a "post whore" (actually, doesn't post-whore mean you've given up that profession?), since I've only been on the DAC forums a little over a year. I just thought I was "chatty".
