Thumbs up Re: PHOTOS - J C Wings - YS-11 x 2 - Southwest and Japan Airlines

Beautiful pair of models. I wonder if this is Gemini Gets mold or its JC own development. However that is, they're both great. We need more of those YS-11s

I'm pretty sure this is the GJ mould as GJ/JC are into mould sharing.
Pretty nice but the blue in the JAL scheme appears too bright. Should be a dark 'Navy blue'.
What I would really like to see would be an Olympic Airways one next.

Nice pics. The landing gear look like they've been through a few rough landings.

Cute models!
Nice to see they lost the Tonka tires!

Now if they'll produce Olympic, Reeve Aleutian, or Mid-Pacific, they'll find a customer in an unlikely place!

No, I call it as I see it; in this case, which is rare, something nice has been produced. Unfortunately for JC, this is the exception, and not the rule!

I don't think there has been a bad YS-11 released using Gemini Jet's mould ...

I agree with your suggestions though ... both Reeve colorschemes would make for good releases ... as would Mid Pacific.

Also ... American Eagle ... don't know why Gemini Jets hasn't released that one
