Hello to you all,

I'm looking for China Southern B747-400F in 1/500 scale but I don't know where to find it, can anybody help me?
Cause it's not produced by Herpa and not by Starwings as well, maybe produced by a chinese brand?

Pls let me know all required infos.

Hi again guys,

Anybody is answering to my request, what's happening?

Desperately looking for that scale model plane, sure it's not a Herpa but probably Dragon Wings model.

Can somebody help me?

probably Dragon Wings model.

Dragon Wings = 1/400 (no 1/500)

Quick search --> type --> China Southern

You'll find several types of China Southern models in 1:400 and 1:500 on the second page.
Still I can't find a boeing 747-400F in 1:500 ?

1:500 manufactures
Herpa , StarJets, Big Bird and Netmodels.

Yes Jason, now I can see it, in fact that's the plane I'm looking for whether the A/C Reg is B-2461 or 2473.

B2461
Actually StarJets EVA MD-11F (B-16107) and Netmodels Cathay Pacific 747-400F old livery (VR-HUH) are still available in shops here, but not too many left.

If you are looking for models and the firm that made them or if they are still available... then check the database on www.wings900.com. Not a chop, but THE reference if you want to know stuff about AC-models.

If it isn't in their database, it doesn't exist.

Just take a look.

Hi SGD,

Tnks for coop, I found the producer it's "Netmodels" it remains to find a retailer here in belgium.

By the way, I also like Sierra Golf Charlie

Netmodels is what they call 'a pirate firm'. They produce unlicenced material. It may be hard to find in Belgium. If you know that even Gimini Jets is difficult to find, Netmodels might be impossible. Ordering may be very difficult for they have no regular output. Honest bids me to tell that the quality of the models is not really 'top' and that you should be aware that the price might be pretty high, compared to that quality.

Check the big internet stores: Aviation Centre Berlin or Aviation Megastore in Rotterdam. They migth have what you are looking for.

Price, including transport fees, might be even lower then full retail in a belgian store.
