next. INFLIGHT AA DC 10!! Thanks to LESLIE for this beauty!! should also a special mention to MARK (24R) here. he runs AVIATIONDELIGHT.COM in Canada. Canada post wanted nerarly $200 cad for tracked shipping for this!! £100 gbp! but mark uses CHIT CHAT EXPRESS, which was just $54 CAD! plus they ship out of HOLLAND, so NO IMPORT CHARGES!! so had leslie post to him, and he re-labelled and posted on. this is the second time he has helped out with a Canadian




















goes great with my AA 747!!

I now send any models via Hermes, especially as now they have a global network from the UK. They're considerably cheaper than the others.

So basically shipping is more than the model itself.

sadly yes. but biggest pisstake now is customs charge VAT on the SHIPPING CHARGES TOO!!! WTF???:e vil: they charge $18 per $100 value. so before I would have paid about $20 on 107.95 before now with added postage total $195 it would be nearly $36!! post office then adds $12 'handling fee' to any package. just for holding the model and letting you know there is a 'charge' to pay!

The house 747-400 is such an awesome looking bit of kit. Can't wait to pick mine up next week Rob! Nice catch with the AA DC-10...I've got the DC-10-10 version myself. So, you starting to make a AA mini-collection then? I have the Gemini MD-11 which is a decent model, tho I do see the attraction with the SMA version. I'd love this livery in a 757 and 767 too but damn they ain't cheap on the 2nd hand market...
