Don't get me wrong AC is doing some nice retro models for sure, but regarding production-innovation-wise it seems like Aeroclassicxs only invests into nowadays stuff. its not all about money (and even IF AC would do the mould - the losses of money through the limitaion of liveries for a potential 114 should be covered by the-so-well-selling Airbuzz models, right) - whoever thought we would have an An-225 replica one day!? but as Herpa mainly is gaining its money through scale 1/500 and 1/200 they can invest into obscure stuff aswell. AC could go the same way, but hey, that's just my two cents.
a statement by anyone in charge at JC Wings would be very kind.

You'll get nothing intelligent from JC as they only care about your money and not aviation nostalgia.
With that said, there will be AC DC-9s in the next months offerings, as well as other favorites such as IL-18 & IL-76.
What AC does is similar to FOX News; Fair and Balanced
The Chinese Airbuses satisfy a growing market in China, and the retro stuff satisfy the base. Since it can't all be done one month, some will have to wait just a bit longer!
