@Nenormal yup, next up is the A380, maybe I’ll do a small turbo prop after and I’m thinking about doing the whole Embraer E-jet family or the A320-family after that
@Dreamlinerboi , the SP has an entirely different wing, because I started working on the 747’s during my finals period and due to the small number of operators, I skipped it for now. However I may decide later to still work on one, for now I am looking forward to building something else other than 747’s (it gets boring after a while).
@Nenormal I used blue prints, made the main fuselage and stared working from there. There are some work in progress pics on my profile as well, I have to say that this aircraft took longer than usual, I will also release the other versions of the 747-family.
@Dissent3R , yet another update, most of the 747 aircraft are done however I still have to do some modifications for the different sub types and engine options, the 747-8 is not finished as well.
It might take a little longer than usual because I’m currently travelling
@Dissent3R A little update on the 747, the 747-100 with JT9D’s is almost finished, the CF6 engines are finished as well, I still have to make the RB211’s for the 747 classic, however I think that those will be done relatively quickly.
I might be able to publish the first 747’s today or tomorrow.
@Dissent3R , A little update, the flaps are done and the wings will be done after I add the flap supports and spoilers. I’m currently working on the JT9D-7A’s and will work on the RB211’s and CF6’s after that.
When the engines are finished, I only have to do the landing gear, the windows, exterior lights and doors and the 747-100 will be finished. This also means that with some minor modifications the 747-200 will be finished as well.
However it might take a little longer than usual because I have finals right now.
I edited the post as well so you can see the current progress.
@Dissent3R yeh it was, between 2018 and 2019 I had the opportunity to fly on them 6 times. Return AMS-YYZ, AMS-HKG and AMS-ICN. Those aircraft were true beauties.
I had PH-BFY (747-400M) to HKG and PH-BFW (747-400M) back to AMS.
I had PH-BFB (747-400 and at that time the oldest 747-400 in service) to YYZ and PH-BFH (747-400M) back home.
And finally I had PH-BFY again to ICN and PH-BFT (747-400M) back home.
Fun little fact about PH-BFB, the aircraft was named “The city of Bangkok”, on it’s first flight (which was to Bangkok), KLM received a plaque from the city of Bangkok which was hanged next to the stairs onboard of the aircraft.
When the aircraft retired it was put on display at the Corendon hotel next to Amsterdam Schiphol airport. As for the plaque, from what I’ve heard it was returned home to Bangkok, where it hangs in the KLM Bangkok office today.
@Dissent3R Also a fun fact about the 747 (which might just cause me to have to make 2 extra 747-400’s, the 747-400ERF only has the CF6 or PW4000 engines), the 747-400F/ERF do not have an extended upper deck but rather the same upper deck as the 747-100 and they have the same upper deck door placement as the -100.
The 747-400BCF is a converted freighter and therefore has the same upper deck as the 747-400.
I decided not to build the 747-200SUD as it is externally basically the same as the 747-300.
@Dissent3R yeh the A330 is basically only more efficient because of the wings, which are thinner and therefore produce less drag…..and have a lower lift coefficient, so yeh I always way that the A330 is Airbus’s rushed response to the 767 by slapping the same engines under shit wings, reusing the fuselage of the A300 (where the windows curve up at the end because the floor is raised to allow an extra cargo container to be loaded). (The windows still curve up on the a330ceo/a330neo and the a340)
If you didn’t notice before, I just have the slightest preference to Boeing.
@Dissent3R yeh it’s a fun lil fact, the CF6 is a real workhorse, it is also the best argument to shutdown Airbus diehard fans talking about how great the A330 while they bash the MD11, 767 and 747.
As the A330 is also powered by a variant of the CF6.
I still have to make the engines for the 747-100/200/300, the engines of the 747-400 are all done as they are the same as on the 767. (Fun fact, the 767 and 747-400 where on development at the same time, therefore Boeing made it so that the engines are interchangeable between the two planes).
The CF6 on the 747-100/200/300 has the same blade count as the CF6 on the 747-400, but the outside of the engine is a different shape, I still have to look into the blade count of the older RB211, otherwise I can just reshape the RB211 if they have the same blade count.
@Dissent3R , do you have any tips for thumbnail pictures, I’m kinda running out of locations (as I don’t have Maywar on iPadOS) and I’m running out of ideas.
@CSTIJN The same applies to Australia.
There were so many Dutch people who went to Australia that it actually kinda made an impact on the Australians people.
Dutch and Australian folks have a lot in common, when we are in a bar or out in a foreign country (often) we tag along with the Australians or they tag along with us.
It’s always fun
@Solent yup, 10000 every year, to thank the Canadians, we have never forgotten what they did for us.
There are also a lot of people who migrated to Canada after the war, so in The Netherlands it’s not that uncommon to hear that someone has family in Canada.
This post is also to commemorate the 80 year anniversary of the liberation of the Netherlands.
Canadian troops have played a major role in the liberation of the Netherlands, for which we Dutch people are still grateful.
The Dutch royal family also fled to Canada during the war, and when a princes was about to be born in Canada, the Canadian government turned that piece of the hospital temporarily into international territory, so the princess would be a Dutch citizen.
In 1945, after the liberation, the Dutch royal family send 100000 tulip bulbs to Ottowa to thank the Canadian government and the Canadian people for their support.
Every year since The Netherlands sends 10000 tulip bulbs to Ottowa.
You can see the Tulips that were send to Canada during the Canadian Tulip Festival.
@keiyronelleavgeek566 we Dutchies are still really greatfull for the actions of Canadians and the Canadian government during the war.
Dutch people also really like Canadian folks.
The wings and landing gear of the a380 will be quite the challenge
@Nenormal yup, next up is the A380, maybe I’ll do a small turbo prop after and I’m thinking about doing the whole Embraer E-jet family or the A320-family after that
@voytek thank you, appreciate that!
@Aviationguy24 it was previously unlisted, all of my posts awaiting release are unlisted before.

@Dissent3R , Yeh it was quite a pain, especially to get the upperdeck blended in smoothly.
@Nenormal I used blue prints, made the main fuselage and stared working from there. There are some work in progress pics on my profile as well, I have to say that this aircraft took longer than usual, I will also release the other versions of the 747-family.
@Nenormal I’ll take that as a huge compliment (I can ensure you that I build it from scratch)
@Dissent3R , Here is a little pre-release peek.
@Dissent3R , yet another update, most of the 747 aircraft are done however I still have to do some modifications for the different sub types and engine options, the 747-8 is not finished as well.
It might take a little longer than usual because I’m currently travelling
@Dissent3R A little update on the 747, the 747-100 with JT9D’s is almost finished, the CF6 engines are finished as well, I still have to make the RB211’s for the 747 classic, however I think that those will be done relatively quickly.
+1I might be able to publish the first 747’s today or tomorrow.
@Dissent3R , A little update, the flaps are done and the wings will be done after I add the flap supports and spoilers. I’m currently working on the JT9D-7A’s and will work on the RB211’s and CF6’s after that.
When the engines are finished, I only have to do the landing gear, the windows, exterior lights and doors and the 747-100 will be finished. This also means that with some minor modifications the 747-200 will be finished as well.
However it might take a little longer than usual because I have finals right now.
I edited the post as well so you can see the current progress.

@Dissent3R yeh, I had the luck to fly on the 747-400’s a couple of time before KLM phased them out, so I studied them quite a bit.
@Dissent3R Also the CF6 on the 747-300 is the same as the CF6 on the 747-400
@Dissent3R Also a fun fact about the 747 (which might just cause me to have to make 2 extra 747-400’s, the 747-400ERF only has the CF6 or PW4000 engines), the 747-400F/ERF do not have an extended upper deck but rather the same upper deck as the 747-100 and they have the same upper deck door placement as the -100.

If you didn’t notice before, I just have the slightest preference to Boeing.

+1@Dissent3R alright, the 747 is progressing pretty nicely as however the wings are and the flaps in particular are a challenge.
@Dissent3R , do you have any tips for thumbnail pictures, I’m kinda running out of locations (as I don’t have Maywar on iPadOS) and I’m running out of ideas.
@KapitanAtuan thank you so much!

@LiaoLuke2012 yeh, just make sure to do the flight control update and give me credit when you post it.
@CSTIJN The same applies to Australia.
There were so many Dutch people who went to Australia that it actually kinda made an impact on the Australians people.
Dutch and Australian folks have a lot in common, when we are in a bar or out in a foreign country (often) we tag along with the Australians or they tag along with us.
It’s always fun
@Solent yup, 10000 every year, to thank the Canadians, we have never forgotten what they did for us.
There are also a lot of people who migrated to Canada after the war, so in The Netherlands it’s not that uncommon to hear that someone has family in Canada.
+2@aviationVietNam if I make it more powerful, it will accelerate too quickly and it won’t be realistic.
@keiyronelleavgeek566 , here is a sneak peek, I hope you like it.
+1This post is also to commemorate the 80 year anniversary of the liberation of the Netherlands.
Canadian troops have played a major role in the liberation of the Netherlands, for which we Dutch people are still grateful.
The Dutch royal family also fled to Canada during the war, and when a princes was about to be born in Canada, the Canadian government turned that piece of the hospital temporarily into international territory, so the princess would be a Dutch citizen.
In 1945, after the liberation, the Dutch royal family send 100000 tulip bulbs to Ottowa to thank the Canadian government and the Canadian people for their support.
Every year since The Netherlands sends 10000 tulip bulbs to Ottowa.
You can see the Tulips that were send to Canada during the Canadian Tulip Festival.

+1@keiyronelleavgeek566 I might have a little fact for you (you probably already know it tho, but I don’t know for sure if you guys are taught this)
+1It is such a shame that the role of Canada is sometimes overlooked by people
@keiyronelleavgeek566 we Dutchies are still really greatfull for the actions of Canadians and the Canadian government during the war.
+1Dutch people also really like Canadian folks.
