Default Premium 1:500

Can somebody please define who/what is "Premium 500"" ??

Is it something NOT made by JC factory which is worth looking at?

Thatīs a good question. I donīt know. Aviation Center Berlin is listing new models namely the Arik / Conviasa / Oman Air as well as some models that clearly showed JC Wings -style boxes and part numbers (Etihad & Fedex) as Premium 500.
I am also a bit confused...

May be we know it better, when we see the models & their boxes.

Anyway you are always welcome to participate and produce some of your beautiful DC-10 & 777s for us.

Considering my original question, and considering they were planned to be made by JC factory, your news doesn't surprise me at all!

Even more sad, that Herpa also uses JC factory (haven't you noticed the horrific quality as of late?), so that would bring us no closer to having those models.

On a happier note, I hear from ARD's newsletter that Aero500 will indeed be releasing some models this next month!!
