Hi,
Pacmin models are easy to get but you have to know where to look. First which airline are you interested in? Try airline sites like Northwest or American and go to their online shops. Call this lady who works for Delta, her name is Deanna Penwell 1-877-882-9262. She's in charge of the model aquisitions for Delta. However she can get you custom Pacmin aircraft. Pacmin is only licenced to do Domestic US and Swissair. It takes 8-12 weeks for the model to arrive. Try pj@aviationmodels-online.com. The guys name is Peter Jackson and his business is in England. Ask him what your interested in and chances are he can do it for you for a good cheap price. This option is probably your best bet. Well good luck and if you contact Peter tell him George from Florida sent you. ![]() |

Pacmin models have alway been a rip off.

Check out the PacMin website. Every once in a while they offer collectors a couple of models.
Available now are the AF1 747 and 707 and a BA Concorde. Be careful when you buy from online airliner websites. Some of the planes look like PaCMin but are not. Make sure you confirm what they are before ordering. PacMin models are very nice. No REG and relatively few details but some of the most impressive models I have seen are PacMin. A 1/50 738 in BWIA new colors in the collection of a good friend is VERY impressive. E |

My pride and joy is the Northwest Worldplane 1/100 PacMin. Simply stunning. Flanking it are Bader 1/100 L-1011s of PSA and Hawaiian.

Did you know that you can order from Jetsreamsusa...
Even though they don't have what you want in their stock, you can still order from them... |

Jetsteams USA is the official distributer for Pacmin models, so your best bet is to look there. Occasionaly the models pop up on ebay too, and they'll typically end up being a lot cheaper there.

Both Pac Min! $200 was what I paid for both. Looking forward to an A319 and 18. Also have the America West Express CRJ 200 another good one.

Some airlines sell Pacmin models on their stores. eBay pretty much always has models for sale. This site seems to summarize the various sources: http://www.pacminfinder.com

Seems that a lot of the overseas carriers are impossible to get especially the Cathay Pacific.

I’m sorry, but I’m not looking for a mahogany wood model of any sort. I’m looking for a Pacmin model as what we’re talking about on the subject of on this thread. Mahogany models don’t even compare to the accuracy of the Pacmin resin models at all. If I was looking for a 1/200 scale I would get one off their website that’s made by Herpa which is pretty darn good. Now if you had a Pacmin CX777-300 in 1/100 scale then we would be talking.

Does anyone have any other sources to get PacMin models other than what's listed on the website? It would be nice to have sources to get other airlines other than the domestic airlines that's available on the website or ebay.
