Good morning, Lauren! Pete here, I just received the Dornier 328 Turboprop model and y’all have out done yourselves again! This model will be placed in the Cavalcade of Wings display in the main hall of the Albuquerque International Airport. Thousands stop and look at this display every year. The Dornier could not have more exposure in my opinion! The display is filled with aircraft with ties to Albuquerque either by being based here or provided service or testing here at ABQ International. Thanks and please pass this email on the those in Angeles City and there in Arizona Thanks again for the wonderful service y’all provide, we’ll have another model on order soon. Sincerely,  

Hi Melisa.

Hope all is well with you.

I received my RV-4 Model on Dec 19 2012 but wanted to open it on Christmas day. I'm glad that I waited because when I opened the box, I was simply amazed with the finished product. I couldn't have been happier with the quality of workmanship that was put in to my model. It looks exactly like my real one and whenever I can't get down to the hanger to see my airplane, I just have to look at my model.

I want to thank you and your staff for taking the time and effort to due my model to my specifications.

I will highly recommend Factory Direct Models (FDM) to anyone I know who owns an airplane.

All the best to everyone in the New Year and again thanks.

Brian Eisner
