Impressive...I have about 200 Schabak 1:600's and maybe 30-40 Herpa 1:500's, along with lots of terminal equipment (Herpa). I also have a few Wooster models...I'll upload some pics soon

[PhilDernerJr]

I have about 20 1:400 models, 1 500 scale, and a couple 1/150s.

For my 400s, I like getting each aircraft type. It's a fun way to look at the proportions of certain aircraft and good for teaching people about aircraft identification. Although, I can't find any 1:400 scale Dash 8s :(

Geminijets sells the ChampionAir 727,if you shop around the online retailers you can find a decent price.

They are the 1:400 size in the cabinet. Up to 312 of em. Yes its another sickness of mine.
90% all old school stuff.

Got the sign from the dumpster at EWR when they were redoing term B.

Sorry for the quick crap shots and the glass don't help either.
