I have a lot of 1/400's (civilian, except the B-2 Spirit being refuelled by a KC-10)...and only thought for a second about purchasing the Cathay Pacific one...a second only. The price tag on that particular little piece was not Herpa's idea at all. In fact, the "limited edition" of
6000 units has (obviously) not sold out and now are going for 320HK$ If my memory fails me not.
I think I saw one or two 1/400 C-47s or DC-3s out there too, not sure because they are just too tiny for my short attention span.
1250ships is so right, if someone started a 1/200 civilian collection, he would probably prefer that scale for an incursion on military planes, but old school guys would probably prefer 1/144...I do have 1/200 fighter jets as mentioned in another post, and they are big and detailed enough to keep me looking at them.
