It is our aim to continue to be a "sustainable" manufacturer avoiding the use of man-made materials wherever possible such as plastics, resins or metal in an attempt to reduce our Carbon Footprint and to protect our environment for generations to come. Our models are "works of art" and not to be confused with mass made plastic kits or diecast look–alike where almost all of these are Chinese manufactured. We are proud Filipino's exporting to all parts of the globe and creating employment opportunities in an impoverished part of our country. Production in our factory is supervised by our own resident British Pilot who ensures that exact blueprints are used for these meticulously detailed scale models - custom manufactured and precisely engineered to your exact specifications and that will be cherished by all.

This acquisition was part of Continental's strategy to expand its international routes and improve service on existing long-haul flights. The 767-200ER quickly became a cornerstone of Continental's operations, praised for its reliability and fuel efficiency.Key Features and Performance:Range and Efficiency:The 767-200ER boasted a maximum range of approximately 7,600 miles (12,200 kilometers), allowing Continental Airlines to operate non-stop flights across the Atlantic and to various destinations in Asia and Europe. Its advanced aerodynamics and efficient engines contributed to lower operating costs and reduced fuel consumption, a significant advantage for the airline.Passenger Comfort:Continental Airlines outfitted its 767-200ERs with comfortable seating arrangements and modern amenities, ensuring a pleasant experience for passengers. The aircraft typically featured a two-class configuration, with BusinessFirst and Economy classes. BusinessFirst offered lie-flat seats, premium dining, and enhanced in-flight entertainment, catering to business travelers and those seeking extra comfort.Cargo Capabilities:In addition to passenger services, the 767-200ER was also utilized for cargo operations. Its spacious belly hold allowed Continental Airlines to transport significant amounts of cargo, contributing to the airline's revenue and logistical capabilities.Impact on Continental Airlines: The introduction of the 767-200ER had a profound impact on Continental Airlines. It enabled the airline to expand its international network, offering non-stop flights to key global destinations. This expansion not only increased revenue but also elevated Continental's status as a major player in the competitive airline industry.The Legacy of the 767-200ER: Though Continental Airlines merged with United Airlines in 2010, the legacy of the 767-200ER lives on. Many of these aircraft continued to serve under the United Airlines banner, maintaining their reputation for reliability and efficiency. The 767-200ER's contributions to Continental's growth and success remain a testament to its importance in aviation history.Conclusion: The Boeing 767-200ER was more than just an aircraft for Continental Airlines; it was a symbol of progress and expansion. Its advanced range, efficiency, and passenger comfort played a crucial role in shaping the airline's international presence.
