Default Anyone knows about Micro West Inc. ?

Hi guys,

this is my newest model. A Mitsubishi Diamond Jet. It is from Micro West Inc. in Orange, California.
I never heared about those guys. Maybe anyone has details ?



Greetings
Marc

Default Re: Anyone knows about Micro West Inc. ?

from what I remember they did a lot of odd ball stuff in the 80's, but mainly military contracts, but also did some airline work . it wasn't the best quality of models, but passable for that time, resin was kind of soft and spongy for the most part. I inherited about 250-300 of their blanks back then, everyone of them needed extra work so I sold them all. your model looks to be in great shape!.
