Ben, it looks like you are the IPMS ES airliner guru. Two questions, please. 1 What is you opinion of the Airifx VS Mincraft 1/144 B727? 2. Which companies do the best aftermarket decals for the 1/144 birds? I really like the 373. The idea of an RDU terminal is great also.

Excellent love to see them all :)

Thanks, guys! Yes, it's Alclad White Aluminum over Tamiya White Primer, and the grey areas are Model Master Canadian Voodoo Grey. Everything else is decal.

Tony, I had thought of doing Terminal C from RDU back when American still owned it. I'd just need a rusty metal box and some 1/144 bolts and rivets to throw underneath it. Maybe a broken-down jet bridge or three. I'll try to get a pic of my airliner collection and post it.

That is real nice Ben. Is that Alclad for the metal finish?

Looks very good...hey when can we get a photo of your collection of these airliners ? Any plans for a terminal in there too...

I like it... Looks good.  Only one in the club with the airliner niche.

I took a couple of kits to the beach last week, and got the decals on one of them. This is the Daco 737-300 that I've converted to an early -200. Liveries Unlimited decals. I still have to wipe the decal goo off, then put all of the antennae, gear, and such on it.



I'll shoot better-quality pics when its done.
