Question Hey Aeroclassics...

You're DC-9's are great, how about making:

MUSE AIR DC-9
TEXAS INTERNATIONAL DC-9

These would be great models.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!

If I'm not mistaken here, Muse Air didn't have any Baby Nines in their fleet- they had one DC-9-30 and a bunch of DC-9-50s and MD-80s. I wouldn't mind seeing a Muse Air MD-80, though- no Southwest Airlines collection would be complete without Muse Air.

As for Texas International, now YOU'RE TALKIN! TI had at least 20-25 Baby Nines and I don't think Andrew has any choice in the matter, Texas International would be too important a Baby Nine user to ignore! I'd probably buy at least 3 TI Baby Nines...

Question

Only Three TI-Nines Doc?

What gives?

I thought you were fleet building.

Cheers!

Oh, believe me, the thought had crossed my mind of getting all 25 TI Baby Nines, but then that would leave me with not so much discretionary income when those much-sought after Meatballs come out.

And yes, I have the Meatball Baby Nine on order. But I sure could use the A300 Meatball and some 727 Meatballs. You know, to go with the TI Baby Nines and a DC-9-30 whenever someone comes out with THAT mould!

And don't even get me started on how many Ozark 727s and Baby Nines I really wanted....

How many you really wanted?

I'm guessing it's something like two of each right?

Mr. Sentinel Chicken,

I think you may be on to something with your request for more Continental "black-meatball" birds!! Likewise, I would like to see the following A/C in CO "black-meatball" colors:

1. B707-324C
2. B720-024B
3. B727-24
4. B727-224
5. DC-10-10/30

In CO "Golden Jet" colors - I would like to see the following:

1. B720-024B
2. DC-9-15
3. Vickers Viscount

I'm sure I have missed some others - any comments??

Regards,
DC-8 Fanjet

But NOT before we see some Texas International DC-9-15s and -30s!

And I must repeat my question again: And WHEN, oh Sleeping Man of Seattle, will we be seeing the most glorious of Texas Heavy Metal liveries?

Don't distract AC with other name, I'm counting models until the ALM on old KLM colors shows up at about number 15 was it?
So STAY the COURSE!
Damn the Torpedoes,
FULL SPEED AHEAD!
And all that sort of thing....
By the way it would be a fantasy model but I would buy a Prinair DC-9-10 with the sweepping purple cheatline like a post card rendering from Douglas.

Let's see a Trans Texas DC-9-10 in the silver and light blue deliver scheme!

AND, to go along with that MuseAir MD-80

Transtar MD-80

Keep hollerin and we'll see the complete Texas ironworks!
