Still love those pictures and the model. Never understood the white horizontal stabilizers though :-)

Is the airport terminal and jetway custom or did you purchase it somewhere? Either way it looks great. Where can one find one?

Thanks, the jetway was made from a 4"X6" acrylic sample I bought in Home Depot . The rest from some Evergreen plastic stock. I still have four HE Premiums, this one, the KLM 744, the PAA 722 and the COA 737. I never photographed the 737. I have some 1/200 GSE now that is lot nicer than what was used in these photos, should really re-shoot all four models.

Great model. Why is it that herpa or hogan can't make polished models anymore??? This model proofs that it is possible. I personally think this polished finish is even better than metal!

Great diorama!!!



The paneling recreation on this model was absolutely a home run. So glad I obtained this model not so far ago, this must be one the best 1:200 models ever made.

Wow, I've always thought this is one of the finest 1:200 models, ever released!

Plastruct makes 1/200 vehicles in kit form, I bought those from their catalog.

I did a pretty extensive internet search and came up with nothing. At what point did AA's A300 aircraft have white horizontal stabilizers?

Although...the only problem with this model...you have to be careful when photographing it! Make sure you are properly dressed !

I don't collect 1/200, but that doesn't mean I can't appreciate a work of art, and that model definately is one.
