Inbound ILS runway 27

New purchases update for me, Ive got an Inflight200 727-200 that cost me $16 on its way, an El Al 767 (old colours) 1:400 Gemini, Inflight200 787 and whatever Jolly old Saint Nick fancies bringing me this yule tide, hopefully be posting some nice shots of my latest arrivals some time in the week. Also very tempted by the new AK200 Shorts 360 in British Midland colours, although I think I will hold out until I see some shots of the model.

The Tristar Lands!
