Much improved fit and strength in belly - still some sanding - then try to fix those awful wing root junctions.

Revell 747-400, as flown by the Irons during the Book of Souls Tour. Building as post-port engine replacements after ground handling foul-up in Chile.
Kit is old, needs much improvement.
Wing incidence is a big complaint with this kit, I have not read anyone noticing the very poor and asymmetrical wing roots on the fuselage halve - this will take some real work as the belly panel is also a very poor fit.
So far required windows opened, others filled, all molded on antenna removed, nose profile correction started, stiffeners in fuselage fore, aft, and nose weighted.
Ordering Druz CF6-80 engines, LACI 747-400 flaps. Trailing edges on the kit are stupidly thick, almost a foot in scale -
