Thanks to A330 Crazy for allowing me to accept these two from his collection. I now have started my push fit collection.

I wouldnt know which to get out of the SAA A346 Brannif 747 and Swiss Md-11. Thanks for posting Ren. P.S your new Concorde models are very nice.

I think they’ve neutered the nose.
Probably to stop kids poking their eyes out or stabbing their younger siblings with them ? 😎

Nice models Ren. They look aroung the same sorta size, perhaps slightly smaller, but you cant tell really.
Cheers for posting.

I think I’d go for the Braniff and the MD11

There’s no mention anywhere of what scale they are ? They could be 1/400th like the Gemini’s or perhaps slightly smaller… 1/450th perhaps ?
I’ve done the same shot as you A330 Crazy comparing it to the A340-600 model we both have. I stuck the Concorde on top of a pile of nickels to replicate the approx height of the undercarriage.
Whaddy ya reckon ?

These little beauties arrived in the post this morning from the BA Concorde shop on their website. Made by Corgi, they are diecast and come with stands as opposed to undercarriages. The old colours one is G-BOAA and the new is G-BOAC. 2 for a tenner !

Of the ones you’ve mentioned, the Swiss MD11 would definitely be my choice – some nice models there.

You’ll be lucky to get the VIR 747 or the Braniff one.
Im liking the SAA a436.
By: Ren Frew - 3rd August 2003 at 00:48
