Hi all fellow collectors, now the grapewine is out that the KFA A330 is due for delivery shortly... also as per the captions on A.net, the reg wud be VT-VJC!! so is any manufacturer spinning the wheel to come out with it?? I think GJ wud be a first, coz they have been releasin 9W models off-lately!! Also Herpa maybe a contender, considerin that they have already made a KFA A320, but in the 1:500 scale though... wat say guyz?? does anyone out there wanna see this bird re-created in the 1:400 scale??

My collection is based on the flight schedule of HKG, there you go I said "mine".

I think 1:200 will be nicer

Since when is Kingfisher starting flights to HKG?

Not sure what he means Karun?

C-Rex

That he thinks that GJ will release this one and that he'll catch "one" of the BOM-HKG daily flight in September ?? Not much to misunderstand there, mate.

1:200Freak

Is Kingfisher launching flights to HKG as a continuation of services to the US West Coast?

late400starter

Not a continuation but a dedicated service to HKG from 15 Sep though it is not officially announced yet with flight number IT091/2 will depart BOM at 10-11pm.

1:200Freak

Karun will be happy to hear this....though surprised he was not the first to hear of it

I will support A330 in Kingfisher colours. If poss 1:500 to match the A320

Hi Karun!
It was my bad expression! I should have phrased that I would buy every single aircraft that flies regularly to HKG. But I intended to stress that they"ll start BOM-HKG.

But I received an update today that KFA actually wants to start BLR-HKG-JFK with A340-500 later this year.

Hope that IT will establish a hub in HKG to connect with the in/outbound US and BOM flights! Jet Airways have just chosen Shanghai to be their second hub after Brussels for their San Francisco flights.
