Thats great news.... do we know the rego.. 4R- ADA? or ADG

I am also curious to know the rego.. It's my dream to build a miniature airport like this at Home but got only two diecast models (1:500)- SriLankan Airlines A340-300 (4R-ADD) and Emirates B777-300 (A6-EMM). Looking to get some more collection of SriLankan A320s and SriLankan A332s but they are rare in the diecast market??

Wow thats great! I have a large collection of model planes. Some 1:500 and some 1:200. I have 1:200 Sri Lankan A340-300 (4R-ADA), A330-200, and Air Lanka A320 that I bought aboard a flight many years ago. It's really nice to see a UL model here at the largest miniature airport

Great!! Do you have SriLankan A330-200 in size 1:500 ? I spoke to aviation shop recenty they said SriLankan Airlines Diecast models are now out of production at Herpa.

Guys.. Do we know who is the owner of the private jet ?

Nice livery! Thanks to umedhah for sharing the picture! I am sure there are some de-rated B777-200s available for cheap price It could be one of those

Thanks Umedhah, Do you know the rego?

As far as I know this B772 is VP-CAL which is operate by Aviation Link Co who provides services for VIP customers in the Middle East. I remember I saw VP-CAL is London Heathrow some time ago but that time it was in all-white colour.
