I collect those plastic model airliners...they are cool-looking, but they
basically just hang around and collect dust.  They are civil airliners,
everything from an old Cubana Tupolevs to A380's in various Asian liveries.

Most I've gotten as gifts, they run about 25-30 bux.  If you have the bux
there are some real nice and expensive ones, handmade from wood, the kind
you used to see in travel agency or airline office (remember them!?)
windows, those can run up to a thou or more...

Basically I am a geek at heart...
