Thanks for the welcome, I have been involved with model planes since my dad started me in 1963 with an Aurora Gotha. I was up to 800+ unbuilt kits all 1/48 when I realized I could not live long enough to build them all so I have been selling them off on EBay. I am a life long aviator and currently a Sim pilot instructor for AA in Dallas. I am looking for a high quality model of the MD-80 in AA markings, and liked the Gemini Jets version, but it appears to be almost impossible to find. If you have any suggestions of alternates, I have looked at a lot of them but nothing seems to really impress me so far. Thanks for the help, Larry
I am going to get a couple of them, I want a nice desktop which is probably 1/100 with a stand. I have the 757 and 767 from one of the groups out of the Phillipines, I got the L-1011 I flew for ATA from them also and those are nice models, but I wanted something similar to the Gemini 1/200 and 1/400 for my Mom. She doesn't like big models in her house (wak) I liked that Gemini "Chrome" version of the 757, it's nice. I am guessing that when these are sold out they are pretty much impossible to find again. Thanks for the help,
Thank you for the welcome message. As soon as I get some idea of what I want to do here, I will post some personal information. After all I didn't know this organization existed before this weekend. Looks great and right up my alley so am looking forward to being as active as possible. Thanks for the greeting.
Gday Raphael, Thanks for your request. Im all new at this, plus recently getting my first 4 die cast models. Ive always had the plastic ones like you can actually buy on the flights. But these die cast ones are far superior. =)
Thanks Raphael. My mind's got some ideas of how I can set up my spare room with a glass cabinet. For the models I get. I have several already. Which I can put in the cabinets. But they're all 1/200. And the airport mat/terminal Im looking at from I think 'Gemini' are all 1/400.
Thanks Raphael. I'm looking forward to being an active member. Your collection is out of this planet! I want to come to your house and press my face against the glass, I love it. It reminds me of the arizona aircraft boneyard with all the planes lined up. I think this type of collection is what all the members aspire to. All we need is lots of room and lots of money! Although I like all planes in all scales I only collect military in 72 and 200 scale so one day i hope my collection is as impressive as yours!
I am looking forward to learning more about Model Airplanes. I am a novice but I LOVE THEM. Most of my experience is with my nephew who is crazy about airplanes in general. He has a few model planes which he put together. I am especially interested in WW2 planes. Where can I get info on that?
Anyway thanks for greeting me. I appreciate it. Hope you had a great holiday!
Tthe Collection is simply Awesome. love the earth shifters and the trainseyt too just to add the spice of variety. Wicked stuff. I have a loooong way to go!

Hi Raphael,
That's quite a collection you have there, I would love to have the glass cabinets that you have, my cars would look great in them haha.
I have a facebook page called ( Garry's DieCast Collection ) where you can view my entire collection of cars, bikes, racing & standard.

Thank you for the welcome. I'm a very "mellow" poster, and there is so much hostility on collector boards. Not neccessarily this one, though.
