Clipper Goodwill, Late 1980s Billboard Colors, Last Official Flight
from Bridgetown, Barbados to Miami, Florida |
Limited
Edition. Having a Pavlovian response to
every Pan Am release, I always start drooling when a new one is announced.
I then order immediately. Others must do the same, because this one
sold out even before it was received by the vendors.
A wonderful, all metal model, with tight-fitting wings, tailplane,
and fin structure, it is truly a delight to own. The landing gear
is all metal with excellent detailing. The PAN AM globe and logo are
printed sharp and clear, and excellent colors are used throughout.
The only flaw is the right-wing gear assembly, which is pushed in
farther than the left. This gives the model a slight tilt to the right.
The gear can't be loosened, and I don't want to fiddle with it and
take the chance of scratching the paint, so the problem remains.
