Our founder
Texan Airplane Store was founded by Nicholas Anderson, a young but enthusiastic man who puts his customers and their interests first. Always interested in airplanes as a kid, his passion only grew as he became older and now he is committed to becoming a pilot for United Airlines. Starting in December 2021, Nick grew his collection of models and in August 2022, started Texan Airplane Store. To the left is a picture of Nick at Airliners International 2023 in Dallas, selling a record number and getting involved in the community.
who we are
We strive for the best experience for all of our customers from small collectors to big businesses! 'We' refers to Nick, who runs all operations whether it be customer service, marketing, or website updates (I'm even writing this right now, Hi guys!!). If there is an issue with a model, your experience, or anything of the sort, our #1 goal is always fixing it just how our customers like it! We're constantly looking at ways to improve our operation, make things simple, and help our customers save as much as they can. We are committed to our customers and our customers are committed to us.

Note: All stores had same, middle-USA shipping address. Free Shipping was used when applicable. Same codes were used between both experiments. Models in experiment 1 was (1) NG Southwest 737 'Canyon' and in experiment 2 was (4) NG Southwest 737 'Canyon'. In the case when it wasn't available, a NG Southwest 738 'Tennessee CS' was used.

This should not be used as a form of attacking other brands. All companies are run by great people.
Great reviews? you bet.

Texan Airplane Store is an excellent source for models. They have no problem holding onto models for customers until they are ready to pay, and are excellent with price negotiations. Models are well taken care of and always inspected prior to shipment.

Texan Airplane Store is a great source for new and rare models. They have no issue holding onto models for you and creating custom invoices until you're ready to pay. Texan Airplane Store has some of the best prices in the U.S for 1:400 and select 1:200 models. They always inspect every model before they're sent out and they use quick shipping solutions. 10/10 overall.
