@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 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 , 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
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.
Today is May 4th, May 4th and 5th are special days in The Netherlands.
On may 4th we remember all who have fallen in the Second World War either fighting for freedom or due to prosecution, not only in the Netherlands but in all of Europe.
We also remember those who have fallen in the Asian theater of WW2.
We also remember all of those who died while participating in peace operations where the Netherlands participated in and all other victims of war.
We honor them with 2 minutes of silence at 20:00, one minute of silence is for those who have fallen, the other minute of silence is for those who have returned but suffered the consequences of war for years to come.
At 20:00 the whole country is silent, no flights are allowed to depart or arrive, people pull over their cars on the highway, radiostations go silent and bars and restaurants stop their service while all of the guests go silent.
On may 5th we celebrate freedom while remembering that freedom is something that is fragile.
Freedom is celebrated with festivals with artists which are ambassadors of freedom, the festivals are almost always free or low priced and the government subsidizes them.
The artists which are the ambassadors of freedom, each share the stories from people who have been in conflict zones to underline the fact that freedom is fragile.
We also invite the veterans from the allied forces to the Netherlands to celebrate the freedom, which they have brought us, with us.
Especially the Canadian veterans have a special place in our hearts, as they have liberated us and the actions of the Canadian government, who turned a piece of a Canadian hospital into International territory so that a Dutch princess could be born and receive the Dutch nationality. For that we send tulips to Canada every year since the end of the war.

@Dissent3R , @Solent , I am currently working on the BAe146-family, as well as a celebratory livery (currently working on one which I will release as soon as I hit gold).
@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 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.

(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 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.

@aviationVietNam if I make it more powerful, it will accelerate too quickly and it won’t be realistic.

@Solent it is finished, it’s not perfect but it looks pretty good. I’ll publish it on May 5th together with the first batch of 757-300’s.
I’m afraid of triangles after this build.
DAMM I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT @GalacticaAsia UPVOTED AND SPOTLIGHTED ONE OF MY POSTS!
(THANK YOU @GalacticaAsia )
@Solent I’m currently stuck at the tail, the tail design is an absolute nightmare to make. The fuselage is already done though.
@Dissent3R , @Solent , I am currently working on the BAe146-family, as well as a celebratory livery (currently working on one which I will release as soon as I hit gold).
@Dissent3R , the first 3 aircraft are published
