I've thought about it too. I do have a Hasegawa TWA MD90 in the 1980's colors, It looks good. Unfortunately Hasegawa does not make an F100 or F70 and neither a 757. I've got fantasy fleets of Eastern, Western, PSA and National using Hasegawa aircraft. With Eastern and Western I mostly just create a whole new paint scheme.
My total count including ones I've built and diecast or plastic was last around 296 but I believe I've added about 20 more since then.

Have really started collecting seriously in the past year - some highlights include DC-10s of Laker, Hawaii Express, Air Florida, Biman Bangladesh and McDD house colours. Lots of 707s. 727-200s of Ariana Afghan, Ozark, Planet, Ansett. 747-200s of Thai, Korean Air Lines ("I heart NY"), Air Siam, Air Algerie. BA 777-200.
Recently discovered an extraordinary model shop in MBK Mall in Bangkok, went crackers buying mostly logojets - although I just realised now: Ansett 747-400 (Sydney 2000), Koreanair 747-400 (British Museum "Passionate Wings To Culture"), Etihad A340-600 (Formula One - just flew it!), Delta Air Lines 767-200 ("Spirit Of Delta"), Thai A300-600R (not logojet, just gorgeous current TG livery).
I warn you, once you get started, it's pretty addictive!

How can there be such a kit since American doesn't have A321s yet? If the kit exists already, is the airplane painted in silver or in light gray like the A300s used to be?

Here is the few I have. They are not all the same scale.
Photo quality isn't the best, should have used a proper camera and not the iphone.
Here are a few kits I have to build. The airliners are 1:144 scale and all those aircraft are flying or have flown in Australia. So once built won't look like the photo on the box.
The few 1:72 scale kits, me 262, lightning, islander and dh 89 are dad's kits.
if the photobucket links don't work, here is a facebook album.

On New Years Day I had over 525 models ranging from 1:600 scale to a 1:50 scale A330-200 in Delta's current livery. After selling a lot of my collection on eBay and to my facebook friends, I'm down to about 410-420 models. My biggest collections are still TWA, Western Airlines, Northwest, America West, and US Airways. I got rid of my entire collection of Continental Airlines models a few weeks ago, save for a 1:400 737-200 in the old meatball scheme from Aeroclassics. I've posted a few pics on here before, I'll repost if I can find 'em.

I started collecting 1/400 scale diecast models about 4 years ago and 1/200 about 2 years ago and have amassed a collection of some 300+ models. I focus maimly on airlines of North and Central America and the Caribbean, although I do have a substantial number covering the rest of the world. Some of my most treasured items include;
Cayman Airways - B737-200
Air Jamaica - B727-200
BWIA - B727-100
Bahamasair - HS748 and Viscount 700
Trans Caribbean - B727-200
Southern Airways - DC9
LACSA - BAC1-11
In addition to these, I am also trying to collect a model of every aircraft type operated by Cayman Airways. Although normally in 1/100 scale, a few of them are in larger scales, all sourced from Atlantic Models of Miami Florida. They are a great outfit and I highly recommend them if you ever want a special model. My collection includes;
I am also looking for a company that may have a mould of the Britten-Norman Trislander to make one for me. If anyone is aware of one, please pass on the information to me.

Quoting American 767 (Reply 18): How can there be such a kit since American doesn't have A321s yet?
I guess I should explain...it started out as a Lufthansa plane, but it was one of the first ones I built without help, and the paint and decals didn't turn out so well. So I simply repainted it and made it a fictional American aircraft.

I've got around 400 Herpa 1:500 models, a little over 10 1:200 models from various companies, a Revell 1:140 Airbus A320 from Condor I built and painted by myself, and a Herpa Lufthansa A340-300 in 1:200. Yes, when I was a kid I spent all my money on aircraft models.
I stopped collecting Herpa in the early 2000's though, when their prices became pretty much in Euro what they used to be in Deutsche Mark before.
Will post some pictures later.
Right now I'm thinking of spending my Miles and More on a Herpa 1:200 model of the B747-800 in Lufthansa colors. Since they're worthless anyway these days...

I have been collecting for years. I have military, civilian and airliner models. Currently, I have ~400 models on display between my home office and upstairs loft. I am trying to figure out a way to properly display my 1/100 747s, A330s and A340s. For now they are boxed and stored. I would estimate that I have ~700-800 aircraft models. Here is some recent pictures of the loft and the shelves I made for the models:
Here is an older picture of the home office. We bought the furniture when we were stationed in Germany. I have switched the models out recently. On the right I now have a bunch of SR-71s. I have all 7 of the 1/72 century wings SR-71s. Great models!
Some of the prized models are all the Herpa Premium 747s in 1/200 scale. I have 2 of each Lufthansa bird and the ANZ and KLM birds. Beautiful models. I also have the 1/72 B-2A model that Northrop presented to the USAF of the Spirit of America when it was named at Langley AFB in July 2000. That is probably my favorite model because of the history and that it was made by Northrop for the occasion!
