@Bife here goes nothing...
@SkyCloudGaming Yes no problem!
Can I convert this into Boeing Model 80? I'll give you credits.
I've flown in one of these!
Nice to see one on here, I've seen one multiple times at the Air & Space Museum near where I live... surprising how big they actually are in person. Sits right next to an F4 Phantom and a MiG-19. :)

@ChisP Thanks!
Not bad really good trimotor
@Diloph Thanks! i will take note of that next time building.
Just magnific , yes , the wings are too short . Very great job .
Nice plane! I wanna say a few things wierd about the plane, no offense, the wings are a bit too short...Extremely underpowered,wheels are quite small, and that’s all. I also am not a fan of no control surfaces, and only the rudder control surface moves, this is you style, your build, u don’t have to change anything just a little things I think are iffy, anyways look cool and love the color scheme!
