Angry Why doesn't GJ produce the SIA Tropical?
I'm just wondering, since Starjets produced the SIA Tropical jet in 1:500 scale, why can't GJ do the same? I'm sure everyone will rush out and buy that model if it's produced.

Unlikely GeminiJets will produce a 1/400 SQ 'Tropical' 744, since Singapore no longer grants permission to reproduce the livery after the crash of 9V-SPK in Taipei last year. The sister ship, 9V-SPL was quickly repainted into the standard color scheme soon after the crash.
