The PL-900, a four-engined airliner to compete with the B707, DC-8, and C-880. The PL-900 was designed as a jet airliner in order to get lots of money from what was considered “modern” at the time. To save time, it was based on the PL-810, a s t r e t c h e d PL-800 to get it to the market early. It was advanced for it’s time, but was outclassed when large 737 variants came to the market.

    Also, this is my first fully custom plane! The rest are simply re-skins of other planes.
