Good evening,
I wanted to hop on for a moment to share a bit of an interesting story which has unfolded for me over the past few days. One which I never though would occur in my life.
As an avid aviation enthusiast, I have always found myself naturally gravitating towards the hobby of airplane model building and model collecting. With a particular interest in trying to acquire the various Pacmin and Wesco models which so many aircraft manufactures used to promote their new designs. Well last week whilst browsing the web out of boredom, I ended up coming across this fine beauty from Pacific Miniatures.

The model above is none other than a Pacmin MD-95 in the same livery & reg. as the one Eric recently painted for the HJG 717-200. Having sought after one of these very models for some time, I decided to make this an early Christmas for myself, and have now become the proud owner of this very interesting piece of Douglas/McDonnell Douglas history.
