HERPA NP 747 classic wing root

B-huj · 10-18-2002, 06:09 AM

has anyone said before that HERPA was changing the 747 classic (notably the 747-100, 200 ...and 300 series wing root) into something closer to the real thing?

well, i have seen the PAN AM release from HERPA and i really hated the wing root, which ressembles a 747-400
to my surprise, the latest lufthansa cargo plane also came out with the wrong wing roots....what is going on there?

Grrrrr! Leave this to me when I see Herpa soon! They have been aware of this defect for ages. Also the wingtips are incorrect! Where are the trailing antennae on all pre-400 Series a/c??

Cheers!

probably broken before the wings were taken out of the moulds?

we need STRONG materials for that....or else....
