Figured it might be cool to get a look see at everyone's collection. Here's mine.

Only a guy that is single can have that many models in his house!

Mines rather large, 350 models! I collect 1:500 models and have a model airport.
Here is a photo of one of my shelves:
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

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 :(

it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.
I have got about 7 different DC-3 models,2 Champion 727s, a CoEx ATR-42 (my wifes first command),and a B-17( I have about 30 hrs in the Yankee Lady), the DC-3 is just about the prettiest silhouette in aviation,I love those art-deco lines ! and the 727 is the DC-3 of the jets !
The beehive hummm of the JT9D and GE CF680C2,the thunder of the JT8D-17,the rumble of the PW1830 and the high ,thin whine of the PW 545A are all music to my ears!
(this is Phil talking)
Oh, man...I want a Champion Air 727. I didn't even know that the model existed!
I have a few.....but with kids, little things like the engine on dads $150.00 Pan Am 747 went and got lost!Originally Posted by Midnight Mike

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

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.

Have a few snapkits, is all really. lots of HO scale trains though.
And I, I took the path less traveled by
