Their new catalogue will only be out in September. The complete line of Schabak will be redesigned and initially Schuco Aviation will focus on 1/600 scale models

Oh Yes, so do I.. as everyone I guess.
But indeed I think we have to stay realistic... everything has its price, and luxery and wellfare also, and I do consider civil aviation within that area

I even hear that the fault in the fuselage would be inspected and if need be repaired in space....IS THIS TRUE :oops: Yes indeed, a telescopic arm enables them to inspect themselves the front and the wings of the shuttle. It appears s...

............ So for the airline, I do not think there is any real impact. Indeed, but it is the passenger who will pay the VAT, so airtravel will be more expensive and this will have an impact. So what, what do you prefer: a slightly higher priced airline ticket, or a coastline reaching Brugge in t...

Wow, it took some time to read the whole review, but it was worthwhile! Quite astonishing to see the level of detail in which they can describe what happened! If this is really the worst accident in the US history, then they can praise themselves lucky (relatively offcourse), because the worst acci...

Thanks for the schedule Matthias. I haven't missed almost any of them. Of course with the typical American flavor and 'need for 'drama', but very interesting indeed and highly recommended. Sometimes a pity that they repeated so many times, but on the other hand that's also an advantage so that as mu...

I agree. I think business-wise it's a logical decision by TAT to maintain the name and especially the 'brand' Sabena Technics....
I don't think this is related nor does affect in any way the naming of the new SN/VA merged company

Rumours go indeed that they are in a bad financial shape... I think the consolidation phase has clearly begon in the low-cost carrier market, as it does at a given time in any industry
