I also a Cargolux 744F and a Caledonian Tristar from a very good dealer in Ontario, Canada called www.thresholdaviation.net. The prices there are excellent thanks to the Canadian Dollar exchange rate and the guys are very friendly and helpful too...
LOL the owner is a very good friend of mine! Known mickey for ages now. Plus i can get me discount :D He is also a refueler at CYYZ!

I really like that British Airways 737-400 - that's on my wish list. When one crops up at the right price, I'll buy it.
Anyway, got a model in the post this morning from ebay. I needed a Thai A330 to complete the Thai Airways fleet and for £14.99, I got one. See the photo below.
There is one thing that annoys me with ebay and that is the delivery times of models. I won this Thai model on Monday night and got it on Wednesday morning after paying for it straight away. Postage was £2.
However, I also won a United 747-100 for a mere £4.04 a few weeks ago. I paid for it within seconds on the auction ending. Despite me paying straight away, the seller has been incredibly awkward in dispatching the item. After winning it 2 and a half weeks ago, I'm still waiting!
Still got my East Midlands 777-300 (1/500) in the post from New Zealand, as well as that United 747-100, wherever it is! :mad:

DOH! I've just reread your post and you weren't complaining about his delivery times. I thought you were complaining about it, which is why I posted what I did.

Very nice Andrew, my latest two are as follows, Air India 744, (VT-ESO) nice details as you can see, "Your Palace in the Sky". I often think Hooters Air planes should have "Your Palace or Mine?" written on them (lol) :D

I have used this seller many times. His user ID is 'giovolvo' and he seems to dispatch by First Class post the day after payment is received.
Excellent service.

I'd like a Virgin A380, but I don't think there is one yet ? Maybe get a Lufthansa or Korean one instead ?
