Where is the missing SQ 747?

A reward of $1,747 will be given for any information leading to the eventual recovery of plane - ST dated 26 Jun page 3

Yes, but it does not make sense that this company, JCB is a company in the construction machinery business. What association or links would it have with Singapore Airlines, and the search? Why would a construction company be interested in the B747 model?

Looks to me like a publicity stunt... but I may be wrong.

ooh old model plane. Is there a model victorville?

So, does OR has anyone figured out the real intent of this advertisement to have been put up? What was JCB's intent in this advertisement, and was Singapore Airlines even aware of this advertisement placement? It simply does not make sense from all angles....

The ad clearly says that JCB donated the model to SQ more than 30 years ago. It would make sense for them to place the ad, no? Or did no one actually read the ad?

I can't see why JCB would do it. Surely they would just ask SQ if there where bothered?

Let me refer everyone to this modelling forum. Read the last post by Arunbalachandar.

This model would be found by members of the public today! Yup, those who are visiting SIA Open House

Nope, it's not there. I was at the Open House this morning.

The one at the open house is a 744 rather than the 742.
