hi guys ,
with regards to the aero minis produced in the uk they did repaint original aeromini stock 747s in the 4 major liveries of TAP,BOAC,QANTAS,AND BA but they also did special one off paint liveries in any scheme that was around in the early 1980s on 747s i have heared of air india ,and lufthansa 747 but mr Tompkins senior from c.a.m london never had a list as such of what was available so i guess there are other out there he only did in very small numbers .
the later airominis were similar scale and had fixed stuck on wheels not retractable and they did almost every airliner you could think of from the 1980s -747-dc10-a300-707-dc9-caravelle-tristar-and including some great little props viscount-vangaurd-twin otter plus others and there was a production list for the late 1980s airominis all hand finished and there detail was truely outstanding if anyone on here can post some pics you will see what i mean,and i am sure it will open a few doors for new collectors i wish i still had mine !
