Apparently, PAL hasn't ordered any 77W inflight model after all!!! This was confirmed to my by both PAL and the WingsWorld staff! However, the people at PAL confirmed that they do plan on selling it after the real planes have arrived. The thing is, a manufacturer has not been selected and there is that possibility that the contract could sway the way of Schabak. And that would be total cr@p! Further, PAL said that the current Herpa model is indeed a fantasy model as minor livery details may still change.
Meanwhile it is confirmed that the two 777-36NERs arriving will have the registrations RP-C7773 and RP-C7777. With Herpa having taken the first registration for its regular release, I do wonder if PAL will have the second registration on its inflight models, supposing it isn't Schabak.
Hmm, why don't they just go straight to Hogan for more detailed planes? Nah...I think they want it cheap.
I'm still in limbo as to whether I'll get the regular edition 77W...

I think if they were to make it in Schakbak I would buy one for my little brother. But yeah I do agree it will look 'like you say it will' (Trying not to curse)
Hopefully its a company more skilled so it will look good with the other mainstream 1:500 PAL models, as I plan to collect those along with the 773.
