We also took the opportunity to break the artwork into two completely new sets, one for the sole 757PF operated by DHL and the other for the new DHL Austria “Hello Austria.” Both decals are complete with our fine 757 detailing decals.

Republic Hybrid 757s Released
In addition to the world’s largest fleet of DC-9s, Republic Airlines also operated Boeing 727s as well as the 727’s successor the 757. The first three Republic 757s were delivered in Republic’s “Mary Tyler Moore” scheme, but the final three were delivered just prior to the merger with Northwest in this unique and short-lived scheme.

The Great 757 Update
Many of us have held out hope that Zvezda would someday release a 757 in 1:144 scale. Our wishes have come true, and Zvezda has blessed us with a very nice, injection-molded 757-200. In order to fit the new kit, all of our existing 757 decals need some adjustments to fit the new kit. As we promised a few weeks ago, we are updating ALL of our existing 757 decals to fit the new kit. ALL orders for 757 decals in 1:144 scale will be filled with an updated decal. In addition to the new fit, we are adding new details to all of our 757 decals which include: pitots, static ports, landing lights and RAT door. We are also offering the schemes which include Coroguard wing panels as a combination decal with the Coroguard included for a special price. In addition, we have added new versions of existing sets to expand our livery options. [Read more…] about The Great 757 Update
