Ah, Comrade Kleinski. Alas, I could not attend. How was it, and were any of the usual suspects there?

A lot more than the YYZ show...However I got a nicely framed PIA 777-200ER for $35 at the YYZ show which is displayed nicely near the cabinets holding the freak collection. .

If you want to know the next show, he may be at the Chicago Airline Collectible show next month if you want to get him.

Yeah I buy my Airbus stickers from him. And I buy those models that are hard to find and I get a chance to see other merchandise he brings. Three suitcases full of merchandise and bring a female companion along. That's how he travels to Chicago. I wish I could see him at the LA show since he lives in the area.

I am quite amazed and amused about this thread. I guess I finally got my 25 responses worth of fame 10 years after I registered on DAC.

The guy who is circled on the photo is the world fameous "Victor Bruno" - ex-SMAC extrodinaire. He was admiring the 1:200 scale Hogan ANA B737-700 Business Jet. SFO was a small but a good show - one of the few remainng in US.

I will be in Chicago and LA shows. Mark your calendar for these two events.

By the way, Darryl still has not get over the Cathay B747-200 Spirit of HK I sold him 10 year ago......... Darryl - you blow

Have Fun !

Ming

Yeah, the model was $10.00, but delivery by your messenger boy was $90.00! My wife still laughs at this one. She said "First you chase models all over the country and now people are bringing them to our door."

Kleinski, I lost track of Ward and Martinez, but I do hear from O'Hare every now and again.

Party on Ming.

You still suck, though.

My view we can all loosen up, but this is a public forum and a thread starting like this one is not right.

Go e-mail Ming Lee if you want to say someone sucks

Hey Mr Aeroclasics, first you have great releases, great models.

Just say NO to BluNutz/C&C/IF400/AV400/Magic/5stars & any Big Birds (real or fake)


But I thought with your deep dislike to the above, that retailers selling them could not access Aeroclassics releases.

Hey greenie, if you don't like the way this forum is ran/moderated..and if you can't get the humor in Darryl's post....you are cordially invited to leave. Don't let the door hit ya.

If you choose to stay, stop stirring up trouble, shut up, and enjoy it.

The boat was never at the dock.

You just showed up at Stapleton for your departing flight.

Donnie, you're out of your element.

Easy lads, as it is all in good humor. I consider Ming a very good friend, with an awesome family, too. I was just messin' with him to call him out to the forum.

Now, when it comes time to tell him what I really think of him, I will just stop by his place, ring the doorbell and run (and steal the last 1:500 scale models that he has).

Carry on boys, lets make Ming famous.
