The TAP will hopefully be the first delivery example, CS-TEA with full polished belly, as shown/discussed on their FB page. This one will definitely be finding it's way into my collection (all going well with this virus of course)

Are the 787-10s and A321 previously announced due with this batch? I thought they were due with the March batch but seem to have not turned up with the March releases.

Didn't Thomas Cook operate one of the ex BMI A332's with the G-WXXX registration before it was re-registered as G-CHTZ? Or you could be right Al, perhaps the white hybrid BMI A332 is one of them?
Surprising how few, this month. Given the long timespan between this release, and the one that preceded it. I’m guessing that’s attributed to the work stoppage, due to COVID.

They did yes, I'm only guessing on the basis, the reg's make sense, BMI has been requested in the threads here and we've had a few TCX examples already.

Good call Al, infact the airframe I was thinking of has already been done by NG Model under it's last registration before the Thomas Cook collapse G-CHTZ!
TAP Air Portugal and Air India L-1011's for me. Still hoping to see Eastern bare-metal sometime soon. Also, a BMI A330 to replace my Gemini, if that's one of the offerings.

I would highly recommend starting a thread here with your NG wish lists or use an established one. Post pictures not just lists, that helps NG assess the artwork potential and gets us all round any international language barriers.
They have a fairly active Facebook page now too.

Looks like around 8 of these will make their way to my collection. Really excited to see the TAP L-1011... gonna have to be more patient for a bare metal Eastern L-1011 to find its way to production. Good stuff coming...
TAP has been an absolute holy grail for me!! I think I'm gonna have a wet dream!

Hi.
Yes, I just checked the SAS A321 photos and I’n not sure I like the silver color on the engines?
Steinar
It's an extreme close up, showing the silver sparkle in all it's (inglorious) beauty. I wouldn't imagine it looking like that to the naked eye. We already know how clinical macro photography can be.

Assuming the G-W*** is a bmi A330-243, I really hope it is in the delivery version of the livery with additional 'british midland' titles and without the web address. This is exactly how I remember G-WWBB and G-WWBM.
There was also G-WWBD which was delivered in the Star Alliance 'clothes line' livery. It would be nice to see that done. Aeroclassics did the later billboard version a few years ago.

The hints seem to be quite off, compared to the actual release announcement. Northwest and United 757’s announced, that weren’t included in the hints. Also a CS- Tristar that was hinted, but seems to not have made it for this round.

WHAT!!!?? Did you say UA and NWA 757s? Where did you see this?
Edit: Just saw them on NG's site. Holy crap! The 2 UAs are nice and I will get them. But the NWA final colors with no winglets is something I've been after for over a decade!! Finally! Thank you NG!!!

NWA is definitely exciting, and I've been waiting to replace my clunky Gemini BMI A330 for a long time too! But yeah, wonder where the CS- Tristar went? Maybe just delayed...

Not real thrilled that TAP Air Portugal is the L-1011 that gets delayed til May. That's the one of the three announced that I want by far the most.
But I've ordered the BMI A330....is intended to replace my Gemini on display.
