    Forgot to add to my collection. 3 life vests from USAir, old Continental and original Pan Am. All vests were acquired on eBay.

    Nice models, I like that Concorde one! Thanks. That large plastic Concorde was a wedding gift from BA's N.A. spokesman. :shock: What a surprise.

    Steve, I love that OneWorld sign. That is HOT!

    what models did 2006 bring u =] Actually, I was wrong. 2006 brought more than 3 pieces. I got the Air Tahiti Nui and Concorde 1:500's which were birthday gifts. And the EOS 757, SN Brussels 146 and large Air Tahiti Nui were corporate gifts. And the Harmony 757 was an NYCA av door prize :) So 2006 brought...6 models.




    From left to right, the planes with arrows are the newcomers, the EOS 757, Harmony 757, large Air Tahiti Nui, SN Brussels 146 with the 500 scale TahitiNui below it. And sorry that Concorde is not an 06 acquisition.




    some pics that are going up in the house soon. The 727 is out of TUL


    Another view of the plane models above


    Some AA metal... I have an older set as well, with the 747,727, and two other planes I just can't recall right now.



    A gift of a poster from Air France's NA Office. Rare, so I opted to get it framed.


    Goodies from AA offices


    More AA goodies,


    My Concorde trip shadow box


    And our first piece of furniture to adorn our home...sorry this is an old pic
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    Wow! That AF Concorde poster is great. It's definitely on par with the newspaper ad BA ran on the final day of service--forward view of Concorde making a wet touch down and the simple phrase "She flew for what we stand for."

    The seats are also great. ;)

    I've been collecting since I was 2 but yeah it has cost me a lot of money, most of them have been gifts for my birthday or christmas or easter and also I spend most of my allowence on them.

    Yeah that is the Shamu -500.

    I here the E-170 is a good model, I'm expecting my Cirrus one soon.

    Nice collection Gordon,

    I took these last night for uplaod today. Heres my small collection. Some were gifts and some are not.
    I dunno if it would be good for me to get into it cause I wouldn't knew when to stop. I'm the guy that drived 4 hours to get a plane...i'd get too obsessed!
    I am not really a collection or dicast models I prefer to make my own form plastic model kits like Revell, monogram etc. However I do plan to start collecting....Maybe.
