Gotta love the props John,!!! An important era of Aus Aviation that built Ansett &amp; TAA &amp; Qantas. A marvelous era I had a small taste of!!

[ALITALIA_747]

Hey Steve, totally agree mate. I sadly missed out, and the airshows are my only chance at spotting these old girls.
<DIV>When i am at Avalon airshow, i walk around them over and over again! </DIV>

The DC-4 looks really great John! I envy your Qantas collection (not as much as Bobs one though!)

[ALITALIA_747]

Haha, thanks mate. We all envy Bobs collection. When it comes to Qantas, i still have many holes to fill. When it comes to Alitalia, you can say i have every corner covered!

I have yet to see your entire alitalia collection. How many models all up?

[ALITALIA_747]

I have 76 Alitalia models, with my most wanted modelthe DW Alitalia B747 400 en route as i type. So that will make it 77.I pretty much have them all in 1:400 scale!
<DIV>I have given mynephew a GJ AlitaliaB747 100, a Herpa 1:500 AlitaliaMD-11, and my cousin a MD-82 a few years back!! </DIV>

[Ansettman08]

Nice! certainly beats my Ansett fleet when it comes to numbers, only 15, but it's most of the Starmark 1:400's that you can get.

[ALITALIA_747]

Do you only want Starmark models???? Or are you going to collect them all?

<DIV></DIV>Would be quite a sight seeing them all lined up side by side!!!

Well, I'm focusing mainly on StarMark and Shooting Stars, but might 2 or 3 Aussie Flag models later on maybe.

also, focusing on getting any special Qantas models, Wunala, Retro colours, 707s etc.

[ALITALIA_747]

@Dan, i have them all in a Detolf cabinet with extra shelves put in. I will take a group photo when my -400 series arrives.
<DIV>Aaron, just do what i and many others do, collect every VH-model which is released or has been released. </DIV>

If only I had the money haha. All I need is a 767-200 in Starmark colours but I'll get to that later on!

[ALITALIA_747]

The Starmark B767 200 is one of my favorites!!! I actually saw a really reasonably priced Starmark B767 a few weeks back on ebay. If i find it again, i will post the link.
