That model was found in so bad condition that I almost give up buying it since it has no landing gear and wings distorded.
Somehow I manage a fixed landing gear and had the wings straight again.
But when completed with the streched upper deck I decide that it could fly on the Geneva-Zurich shutle at a TAS restricted to 280kts with gear down of course. So it became Swissair you could see them on the Far-East & US routes.
