Aircraft Models Crux

Country: United States Air Force
Aircraft: Rockwell International Boeing B-1B Lancer
Scale: approx. 1:144
Manufacturer: Corgi
Date Bought: December 8, 2006
Price: Php 300.00

The B-1 Lancer, along with WWII ace Dick Bong’s P-38 Lightning, are the first military planes of my budding hobby. Very much unlike the P-38, the B-1 is a modern plane, with 67 planes still in active service as of this writing.

Aside from being my only model with movable parts (the wings), this plane blended quite well with the colors of my bedsheet. In fact, it blended so well that I almost sat upon it!

This WWII-era plane, along with a B-1 Bomber model, are the first military planes in my collection. I bought them on the same day I received my writer’s copy of the Literary Apprentice Lite 2006; think of them as a self-reward for having been published.

Scale: 1:400
Manufacturer: Dragon Wings
Date Bought: December 4, 2006
Price: Php 900.00 (discounted from Php 1100.00)

This Qatari A330-300 sports the special livery for the 15th Asian Games, which were held just last December 1-15 in Doha, Qatar. More importantly, however, this plane has the distinction of being the very first aircraft model I bought, making it the current apple of my eye.

Hello, welcome to my blog on model aircraft. Before everything else, I’d like to declare that I’m an absolute newbie when it comes to aircraft modelling. I started this hobby just last December 4, though I must admit I’m getting addicted to it fast.
