Boeing 747-400

5.7 years ago
Credit 95% to @REW for the original build. Small flight control tweaks added. Future builds of the 747-400 should include higher thrust engines. The next builder has permission to upgrade this very old build.
Certified in 1976, the Cargo SP version of the 747-400 traded passenger seats for range and cargo space. Only 75 were built. Quantas set a non-stop flight record with the 747-400 in 1989, flying London to Sydney for 11,150 miles.

@CoolPeach ooooooof
.... They’ve literally admitted that it was from the linked plane. @TheMitsuboshiBoi
@CoolPeach hey leave him alone m8 thats actually his design
Thank you @AntiSocialTaco @JPerero @AtlasAviation @FireFlyer
@temporaryaccount That is not my desire, ever. Transitioning account data from an iPad to an Alienware PC laptop has consequences unforeseen. Sub-assemblies, with no author, is one example.
@temporaryaccount Yeah, SP is far from the "perfect" one could hope for. Thank goodness it's mostly a sandbox game, The Dogfights and Races are rigged, IMHO. Not a programer, just a mere user, here.
@TMach5 At least, none of us "diss' @hypnotoad or @spritusaptor. (There exist other users who receive hundreds of IW votes for an untested postage stamp build icon.) You must have been on SP longer than I have, maybe......
@TMach5 I appreciate your feedback far more an an IW upvote. Thanks.
@Smoothray don’t worry, I’m not going to remove my upvote. But, it’s important to remember that SP users are very sensitive about copying without credit given. If you do modify in the future just be sure to credit in the comments. You know good plans when you see them, so, I expect great things from you in the future. ;-)
It’s like something deep down in the old school SP psyche that wants to discover the next hypnotoad or spiritusraptor. Oh well, another lesson learned. @CoolPeach @spefyjerbf

Thank you, this was a tweaked re-bulid of a 3-year old post, @BoomiesYT @randomusername @ThomasRoderick
Thanks for noticing the original build. This used came from an old iPad subassembly where the subassembly author is unknown, battery is dying- I could not find the post your reference previously, but yes, now I will include it. @spefyjerbf
@Smoothray oh wow, you actually did it, most users I see usually start arguing that it's theirs, when they know perfectly well it isn't, but you actually did the right thing and credited REW in the description, thanks!

Thanks, but I'm not seeking a Spotlight anyway, @spefyjerbf
Thank you @TMach5
This was copied from REW's post, either credit him in the description, or delete the post.
@CoolPeach Ouch. The dimensions are a perfect match. This is probably a copy. Looks like it was too good to be true. Unfortunately I cannot un-spotlight a build...
This looks an awful lot like this plane don’t ya think...
@TMach5 @spefyjerbf
Looks wonderful! High quality builds like this don’t get posted every day - especially by bronze-ranked users.
Edit: Yeah.... spotlighting was a mistake here. 99% chance that this plane is a copy. I'm dumb.
Nice! The engines need a little more power, but still, an excellent post!
