Sporty's has them. A custom model is 425.00 in the catalog.

I've had models made of every aircraft I've been typed in, 10 to date, all have been made through Anderson Fine Scale Replicias, except the last, and that was with Pacific Aircraft (www.warplanes.com). Pacific custom made my plane for me, hand carved out of mahogany and painted in company colors, for $310, including shipping and a stand. The airplane measures about 18 inches long and 16 inches wide.

The last model I ordered from Anderson's was never produced. I paid them $325 upfront and they never delivered the airplane or gave me my money back. Anderson's ended up selling their business to a guy in Dallas, Griffin Aerospace, but like me, there are probably 999 other customers looking for refunds or an airplane from Griffin, so good luck getting something from him.

I'll be ordering another airplane from Pacific very soon, they do great work and they produced the model within 12 weeks. I'm sure Sporty's is produced elsewhere, all they do is add on $100 for their services, so go direct to the manufacture.

If you haven't already decided, give asian imports a try. (www.asianimportscorp.com). The company I work for had ordered approx 12 Citation X models from the company. They all have our custom paint job, plus the company logo and our name (Captain So and So), on the base. The model is custom made out of wood in the Philippines. The X model is your standard display model size. Since it was a large order, we paid $170 a piece. I think they are around $200-$225 for individule orders. Since it is hand done with wood, the curves probably aren't as perfect as the plastic models, but if price is a factor, you can't go wrong with the wood one. I can say it is the center of attention in my "I love myself" room.

PAC-MIN

Pacific Miniatures makes the best scale models that I have seen. I have two. They are the most accurate and to-scale.

Our Chief Pilot has some really nice models of our aircraft... looking at the quality of them I am guessing they are around $500 or more each...

I will try to remember to ask him where those are from...

I would love to have a model of each plane I am typed in, but I just can't justify that kind of money for a bunch of static models.. maybe someday I'll buy one or two...
