Wanted: modern commercial aircraft

[Robert38a]

I am developing a full working model of Heathrow from the Heathrow2 route by Stagecoach. Having now at last got my taxiways, gates, airbridges, pushback markers and routes and signalling around the airport working properly, I am now modelling a full day's scheduled timetable.

There is a good selection of modern commercial aircraft in content and I will obviously have to improvise with airlines and aircraft but there are some glaring omissions - in particular there are no Boeing 777 or Airbus A340 at all.

Wondered if authors such as Vulcan / Papou and others had any plans to model these aircraft? (Would be willing to pay a reasonable amount). Are there any sites that can provide Trainz-compatible payware? In particular I am very keen to locate Airbus A.340-600 Virgin Atlantic and Boeing 777-200/300 British Airways/American/United models amongst others.

Google search suggests Arraial may have already made a few Airbus A340's for Trainz, eg. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_bwAsOOUfw

I don't know where they may be, or the kuids.

Hi Bob, have a look at Ianz Trainz website, he has B747;s, B767's, B727's, B737's, A380 and Concorde plus more.

Search on the DLS under Vulcan, Papou, Rob725, NZMS, and CJ187 for a lotta planes

If the last two posters would read my mine properly before diving in they would see I acknowledge a good selection of aircraft in content.

I am specifically asking for 777's and 340's and colour schemes for airlines that fly into Heathrow.

Thanks Dinorius but Arraials 340's are not train vehicles but moving scenery items. The only track vehicle I am aware of from him is the TAM A.320

This is a bump on this thread as I am making a serious enquiry and the replies above give the impression that I just can't be bothered looking for anything myself.

I currently have 109 scheduled AI aircraft from vulcan, papou, rob725, nzms, cj187 and arraial wandering round my layout. (with surprisingly few AI problems - maybe because they are in effect just the "engine" without any carriages)

Many of the aircraft types and operators are not true to Heathrow and I am looking to increase the realism. For instance I have the old colours BA Dc-10s masquerading as todays Boeing 777 and Qantas 747-400s pretending to be Virgin A340-600s.

I am looking to build up to a full days operation and it will be interesting to see how far I get before my laptop says enough is enough.

As I say, this thread is a serious request for information.
