This week I will be giving my personal review of the most recent examples of the Pan Am 747-121 in the "Billboard" livery. This is more of a comparison and my opinion on what are the strengths and weaknesses of the molds used by both manufacturers.
I recently received the Pan Am 747 Inflight200 version after having the Gemini200 747 since it's release in Dec/Jan.
Below is the overall view of the Inflight200 N737PA "Clipper Ocean Herald" example

And now the Gemini200 N741PA notice how the blues are a bit off between the two. If you don't notice, the Gemini200 version has a much darker blue than the Inflight200 example where it borders into the sky-neon blue...

Now lets get to the engines because that's what I feel needs to be covered.. The Inflight200 version I feel has a better outside view of the engine including the cowlings and you can easily tell where the movable parts are on Inflight200 such as the reversers...

While the Gemini200 is more simpler and just kinda has a more.. "I'm an engine" look, but the fan blades on the Gemini200 I feel look a lot more detailed than the fan blades on the Inflight200:

The nose on both models are fairly equal, where the writing more or less is similar to both examples.
Inflight200:

Gemini200: (Apologies for the blurriness I will replace later)

Lastly a nose to nose comparison, where the Inflight200 version is a little lower to the ground than the Gemini200 version.

Both models have their good and bad. While the stand on the Inflight200 version is much more professional with a plaque of the type and airline, I still like the fact the Gemini200 version has removable landing gears which gives the plane a better "In-Flight" look while on the stand. The model would be perfect for me if it had the Gemini200 fuselage with the Inflight200 engines and Gemini fan-blades.
Let me know what you think, or if you have anything to add that I missed!
