Hey tipek
What scale were those -328 Models in because those boxes look huge.
Those are framed posters :)

Does this count?

Behind is an A-10 Warthog, far back is a B-29 bomber, and there's also a B-52 wing sticking out from the right. The Northwest's engines flash, and it makes sounds, too!

Virgin Atlantic Seats

A note about the Virgin seats--When I originally got them from a seller on eBay, there were only two seat covers. I contacted Virgin and they were quite amused with my purchase and subsequently sent me five brand new seat covers for free! I also gave them the part number of the seats, and they were able to see they came off G-VBIG in 2001.

Man, those are some rare items you have there!
All my collections have some sort of personal value. Most of my stuff is old Grumman things, a couple random models, some hand-built stuff, etc.
Here are my models. The S-2 in the center is a pre-production version made by Topping, over 50 years old, and pride of my collection...

If you've ever been to the Cradle of Aviation and been in the mock LEM clean room, you may have seen a copy of this on the wall
http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c1...n/IMG_0144.jpg
Back when it was just a baby Tomcat
http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c1...n/IMG_0158.jpg
What I love about all the old books is that there is so much experimental stuff and things that never went into full production. Its really interesting to see how history unfolded, what made it and what didn't. I also have a Grumman magazine in the basement somewhere that shows the last production Tomcat taking off from Calverton. I'll dig that up tomorrow for ya.
Those are hot!Quote:
