Re: Regional Snapshots - What I Cannot Wait For

I'm jealous you got a ride on one of these - I scheduled a trip BNA-MWA in order to catch one and it got subbed with a 402 on both legs :sad:

Re: NG New Moulds

I would love to see one of these - here's my crappy pictures of the one in Speyer - was cool to see it "in the flesh" so to speak.

Re: New Guy Here

Welcome to the forums!

Since landing gear needs to support the weight of the model, I prefer using a two-part epoxy. The 1 minute version still gives you a moment to properly align before it sets,...

I was able to get some extra 777 landing gear through Aviation Megastore in NL before, so they might be another option for spares.

Re: Herpa releases 05/06 2021

It figures that I just had a custom made of that Alrosa Tu-154 LOL since I flew it in 2018. I'll still probably pick it up anyway. Maybe the IL-18 too.

Nose shape/cockpit printing
Mould accuracy overall
