Best emirates a340-500 so far, I actually originally thought it was an a330 while you were building it 💀
@Aviationguy24 yw man
@Apollo018362 Omg those are so good 😭 I'm not very good at taking photos of my aircraft, I'm trying to get better
Thats a great livery but a poor screenshot, so i took these two, and i want you to delete this and reupload the plane with the new thumbnail, you will see that it will get much more people to see this.
Oh, and this is the first and the second screenshot
