New Arrival: April '25 Aeroclassics

April of 2025 was another interesting month for Aeroclassics. There were nine models featured this month, and all of them were true classics. There were three different casting used, and the 727-200 tooling received a slight upgrade. I selected four models from this month's batch. I chose the Trans Brazil 767s, the American A300, and the Air Jamaica 727-2. There were notable pros and cons to each of these models. For a closer look at this month's additions, read on.

In March of 2025, Aeroclassics produced eight 1/400 scale models. So getting nine this month is a nice uptick and just slightly above the usual quantities. Even so, there were essentially only three different castings used. But Aeroclassics always plays the strongest card in their hand first, overall selection. 

This month there are seven different airlines from five separate countries represented. Seven are Boeing's, and there are two Airbus models as well. My selections were primarily motivated by fleet building.

The pick of the litter had to be the American A300. A great subject on a very good casting, properly executed with polished metal. This is my 29th American Airlines model. I've missed out on all previous Trans Brazil models, so these two will be the first in my collection. Lastly, Air Jamaica is an interesting Caribbean airline that is under represented in my collection, and this will be the first in the collection wearing this particular livery.

Notes:
This ended up being the most disappointing round of models from Aeroclassics that I've received this year. Each of the models shown above feature production issues, as well as some production oversights that make the asking price for these models cringeworthy. I'm planning on digging into that at a later time, but I'll be reevaluating further purchases from Aeroclassics for the time being. I always appreciate the selection that they offer, but the never-ending cascade of production mediocrity is truly bothersome.
