Down memory lane: Malaysia Airlines A300B4-203,Scale 1:400 by Aeroclassics

Haven't posted a single post in the blog for a month already; so time to share with you guys my latest addition to my current collection; the MAS A330-300 'Oneworld', B737-800 OK-TVC and the A300 9M-MHD.

First one is the Airbus A300B4-203; Registration 9M-MHD. MAS relationship with Airbus began in the 1970s,when MAS orders 4 A300 aircraft for replacing the B707-300.The aircraft (9M-MHD) was delivered on 27th August,1981 and in service till 10th of November,1994. Overall,MAS operates 6 A300 (including 1 leased from Scandinavian Airlines and the other 1 leased from Air France).

This model is made by Aeroclassics,and the scale of the model was 1:400. They also made the same models in different color:

* 9M-MHA (Original Delivery Color)
* 9M-MHB (With bold red 'Malaysian' title)

This aircraft model also a down memory lane for me,as It was my first and only ride onboard a wide-body aircraft when i was a small kid,and the flight sector was KCH-SIN-KUL (present-day SZB) back in the 1990s.

Here are the photos of the model; Enjoy!
