Austrian Airlines inflight set

Some months ago, I inquired about the special inflight set directly from Austrian Airlines. They were gracious enough to allow me to order this set. I actually had it delivered to a friend residing in Europe, who then brought it to me during a recent holiday.

The 777 in the set was reportedly identical to the regular release. At any rate, it is one of the most detailed OS plane released by herpa, though not yet as detailed as the ANA Precision Models.

The set also came with an A320-200 exclusive only to this set.

Compared to previous OS releases, this inflight set had better printing - the arrow had a brighter red with a shadow. The previously released A330 on the left had only a monotone red on a non-painted plastic tail.
I'm looking forward to the yet to be released EM 2008 A320!
