New Arrivals
Here are the 'other' scale arrivals:
PPC Holland 1:144 Qantas 707-320C. This is quite a nice model of a classic livery 707 and I'm looking for other models made by this same company, so if anyone has any info about where I can find more PPC Holland models, be it in Europe or anywhere do let me know:   SM 1:130 Australian Air Express 737-300F:   RS 1:130 Lion Air 737-900:   FM 1:100 Austrian Arrows DHC 8 Q400:  |

Re: New Arrivals
The first plane would make John Trovolta proud...considering he owns the 1:1 version. This was a good non-1:200 post!

Re: New Arrivals
I still don't get this whole JT story about him getting this old QF 707 and keeping it as his pvt jet etc. Is is originally Aussie? Why that particular a/c?

Re: New Arrivals
Travolta is a qualified pilot and owns five airplanes, including a former Qantas Boeing 707-138. The plane bears the name 'Jett Clipper Ella'. Pan Am was a large operator of the 707 and used Clipper in their names. The plane is named for his son Jett and daughter Ella. His house in Ocala, Florida has its own runway and taxiway right to the door. In 1993, Travolta successfully performed an emergency landing of a plane with electric trouble at Washington Reagan National Airport.

Re: New Arrivals
A runway and a taxiway right to the door...I thought those things only happened in fantasy dioramas or in one's own fantasy land!
