      • Nice additions John. Antennas on 1/400, geee whizz, bloody small enough on 1/200 if you have to find a missing one in the box. Not to mention trying to re-glue them back. So I guess for 1/400 you would need to take them to the nearest neurosurgical unit to get them re-attached.

                    • LOL i don't think you could complete a collection of Aussie subjects, there are just soooo many, soo many regos, variants, liveries, it's a mission! Even collecting the whole Captain Cook series of A300's is very hard these days, as each one can fetch around $180 and upwards! I saw an Air Niugini Birds of Paradise A300 go for AU$285 at auction not that long ago!

                      nice additions John! [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]
