Not bad. I will get this and the DHL ones. I wish they made a UPS one to go along with the others. These look like the CFM engines that are on the UPS ones besides the smaller ones from another carrier who still uses the older ones with the engines.

We know Gemini is aware of their existence, since they released the 707F. A good bet, I think.

Easy, tiger. It's only a three-month old mold.

This is the scheme I was hoping for. I remember seeing one on final one morning at IAH. I was running in formation next to another cop-to-be who used to work on them. He nearly fell down when he saw her....

Best DC-8 they could make, after UPS o/c. Must-buy. Now if only Mr Klein would make a matching DC-9.

When GJ makes a BETA DC-8-70 (and they've just GOT to), they should send them all down to Celso first, so he can autograph the boxes.

You will NEVER see GJ make an old color UPS anything! IF we are lucky enough to get the DC-8 in the new colors, it will be a corporate release available to employees only. UPS tightly controls their trademark.

For the love of God Gemini, keep these DC8s coming - your on a roll.

Excellent release.

I agree that we need a red-top, but we need this one too. Plenty of time for more later.

Good job, Gemini!!!
