Congrats, your mate must be very very small.
Glad everyone likes the pictures and that it’s opened up such a discussion about the merits of Scottish scenery. That part of the world, i.e. the western highlands and islands has arguably the best looking scenery in the UK if not the world.
When the weather is good and the horizontal rain lets up for a while, you could be in the Carribean or Seychelles. Golden white sands and beaches that go for miles, not a soul to be seen generally and lot’s of little nooks and crannies to get lost in. Greekdude has already mentioned the malt whiskies, what more do you need ?
Oddly enough another colleague of mine is flying up next week to do another film report… He’s taking his Nikon D1, so hopefully more pics to show ?:D
Couldn’t agree more.:D
Don’t worry I’ve found the Emirates one elsewhere at a good price.
Have a look on this site for other collectors views http://www.400scalehangar.com

I disagree Ren
The first airbus was the A300, then came the A310 then the A320 fimily and the A330 and a340. So it makes sense
yeah but the A340 came before the A330 didn’t it ? The A320 came before the 19 and that before the 18 ?
Welcome to the mad addictive world of 1/400 scale ! 😀
You’ll probably be bidding against Andrew, Michael and me on e-bay before you know it. I just won an ATA Boeing 757 in special livery. Pics to follow…:rolleyes:
There had to be one somewhere … cheers for the photos, very nice.:D
Here’s a nice A330 that arrived today…

The current Anna Friel one is nice. I haven’t got a clue what she’s selling though.
She’s selling luuuuuuuuuuuuurrve baby !:)
My fave is the John West salmon one where the guy nicks a salmon from the paws of a grizzly bear that just plucked it from the river.

So why start with A300 then A320, then A319, A340, A330. A380, A318 ????:rolleyes:
Apologies if that’s in the wrong order but it still makes no sense…

LOL 🙂 So how was it feeling that day…:D
I did the flight around 9 years ago, it felt like 45 mins but I’m sure it was really longer. Hard to tell when you’re singing songs and drinking uisge beath ? :rolleyes:
