The Saab arrived it is hands down the nicest model any of us have ever seen WOW! We will be placing an order for a batch of Westwinds to lead time I will get you the count mid next week

Arnold and Staff made the impossible happen for us. He delivered 21 beautiful models in record time. This wasn't a simple order of 21 of the same models, it was 4 different models with different paint schemes and logos going to 3 different locations. He made it all happen almost effortlessly and even took time from his holidays and weekends to make sure everything made it on time. Can't wait till next year to place another order from ALM. Thanks to everyone that worked so hard to make it happen. Oh, and the models were all flawless, beautiful models that made great gifts for our pilots.
Thanks,

When my Shorts 360 model arrived I was happily surprised to see the incredible detail that Arnold took on the model. Every time I look at it, it provokes vivid memories of flying that aircraft. He has been very professional throughout the process and I can't wait to order another model of the next aircraft I fly from ALM!

I got my first ALM model from Canada today and it is a very nice and detailed model. It is a Twin Otter of Eastern Metro Express, another addition to "Birds that I Have Flown" collection! I'll try taking some images soon, although my old tarmac piece became non-operational about 2 years ago! For any custom model need I highly recommend the folks at ALM. Great communication throughout the ordering period. Thanks to Dave M for recommending this custom model manufacturer alternative!

Just wanted to let you know that the Perimeter Metro you had in stock arrived before Christmas - and my friend loved it! It was truly the perfect gift and the detail was amazing.

Today I picked up the long awaited Supermarine Stranraer I had ordered from ALM, I can't remember when I ordered this but as it was a new and odd airframe I was asking for, I stressed that I'd rather wait for quality than receive a bang up rush job. I am not sorry I did this. The airframe on this is as perfect as it gets with carved mahogany, the dimensions are accurate with none of the usual fat spots that carved models are famous for, the wings have the proper dihedral and sweep and the struts have the correct rake and airfoil shape. The wings and tail are scalloped and the amplitude of the scallops are a tad high but do not distract from the model. The overall finish is as smooth as a Bader with the graphics straight and the correct colours where applied, the windscreens and pax windows are bang on the lettering is for the most part superb, the registration is straight top and bottom, the logo is awesome and the titles lettering is acceptable, there are a couple of the small print areas that looks like the artist had a hangover but I don't expect miracles with hand printing that small, stand back a couple of feet and it looks like a decal. The detail on this includes cleats on the nose, properly proportioned handrails on the chine and all the bracing wires between the wing struts as well as on the pontoons. As mahogany models go (and I have over 50 of the things here) I would rate this right up beside a Bader DC-6B, the Bader excels in some areas and the ALM excels in others so it's a wash. The price however is about half of a Bader and you only pay a deposit up front. I have wanted a Strannie in my collection since I started collecting and this one is of an airplane I played in when I was a kid as it slowly deteriorated behind the PWA hangar at YVR, must have logged 20,000 hours in her before a Shorts Belfast came and took her away, she lives on, fully restored in the RAF Hendon Museum in London wearing her wartime colours.

After being ignored by the other guys, I went to ALM and they made up my Banshee well beyond my expectation.
