Posted: Sun Jan 15, 2017 6:19 pmIf this is a 707 why does the plane have a Boeing 720 on the sides? Great work by the way!

Have no idea, since when I googled 720 it really didn't bring up anything, anyways though, I'll find out, for sure.
It actually looks like 707-720 was about the same plane.

Okay thanks. I was pretty much mentioning this because I wanted help just in case you didn't realize it.

The Boeing 720 is a four-engine narrow-body short- to medium-range passenger jet airliner. Developed by Boeing in the late 1950s from the Boeing 707, the 720 has a shorter fuselage and less range. The 720 first flew in November 1959 and the model entered service with launch customer United Airlines in July 1960.

Re: Boeing 707 Big Jet Plane
Posted: Mon Jan 16, 2017 11:16 amNo idea, the 720 was really quite a big aircraft, it comes with the double back landing gear, about 12 wheels.
And I'm still thinking about building the double decker stratocruiser later.

Re: Boeing 707 Big Jet Plane
Posted: Thu Jan 19, 2017 12:56 pmTake most of the sweep from the wing and add a bit to the tail. Also needs lengthening between the wing and the stabilizer.
Re: Boeing 707 Big Jet Plane
Posted: Thu Jan 19, 2017 5:19 pmI don't know, but it looks pretty close to me. Maybe needs a bit more dihedral and a repositioning and resizing of the main wings. Yah, I know dihedral changes as the wings develop lift.

Posted: Thu Jan 19, 2017 10:58 pmWill be returning to this project tomorrow if I get the chance, will definitely update the length, wings, and these other things. When it's finished it will be perfect, or at least mostly perfect, don't yet know about the paint job.
