Finally Getting a 'Must-Have' for Any GC Pilot
Last night I ordered two plastic models. From the Atlas store I bought a Polar 744 and Atlas 744 model, looking forward their delivery! I got the 14 inch, 1:200 scale models which are $30 each. I tried to get the 1:1 scale models but my card was declined.

Please let us know what you think of the models when you get them.

Create an account and beware of the shipping costs to Canada. It scared me away from buying. Unless I meet Justin at CYWG. When he flies in.

I will actually be in town within the next week. Unfortunately just on a turn and if I enter the gate area I'd have to go thru customsKen S wrote:Louis, Go here:esurfman wrote:How could you order?

LOL, 1:1 I'd like that one too Justin, but I think my card would get the boot as well

The shipping was going to be $55.00 to Canada.
I found an alternative:
http://www.airplaneshop.com/
I am willing to chip in the $15.00 I saved for that wheel.

Nice site, I'll have to check it out more when I'm shopping for more models. I have bought all of my other models from www.airplanesuperstore.com. I went there first for these models but the companies they list either don't make Polar/Atlas or they quit making them.

You must be very careful when it comes to dealing with Customs officers in Canada - especially if you are a Pole...esurfman wrote:What's that the sad face when speaking about Customs...Don't whant to be on the black list Justin?
Re: Finally Getting a 'Must-Have' for Any GC Pilot
I just took delivery of the models. These models are the highest quality I have. I have probably 20 models, mostly of the 1:250 or 1:300 scale. These models come with landing gear, a first for my collection. Very nice models and $30 a piece is a bargain.
