Here we have it, the orange plane I told you all about that will complete the Planespotting Challenge.

To the people that participated, thank you for joining, and hopefully I get to do more exciting challenges next time. It was a but unsatisfactory, but it was quite exhilarating to churn out 10 planes in 10 days, and also the build request bit.

Now regarding about the plane itself; many, many new reworks from my previous works of the 747 family of models, most notably is the rework of the nose section, you might notice some sort of floor beneath the cockpit and extra hinge pieces on each side, and that this is a new nose assembly, smoothened out the creases and fixed some botched surfaces to create a more smooth and handsome appearance.

Another thing that has been reworked are the flaps section, they function much like from the 727-200 NWO project, slat wise, I didn't forget them, and my God does it now complete my 747 projects, its really cool to see.

And with those reworks, the part count jumped so the cockpit had to be simplified to the extreme and yet still keep vital details, D.I.Y seats are replaced with passenger parts, knobs removed, and the simplification of the engineer panel.

With that, I will start on another project you guys might like, especially for you readers out there. Stay tuned with my forum post or Instagram.

Remember, score at least 5 for a build request, 9 for a livery request, and must be submitted before 31st December 2020.
