I'm Going To Repeat What I Said on w900.

GORGOEUS MACHINE! HIGHLY Under Rated Release! ABSOLUTELY THE BEST Quality Tristar Model There Is! BAR NONE!
EVERYTHING Is Accurate Here. S-Duct, Wing Box Fairing, Nose(Well Not Bad), Cockpit (Reasonably), EXTENDED Wings, Tailcone, Engines & Pylons! Whew! What A List To Get Right!
And The FUKKING Thing SITS Level Unlike Some Other Brands!

3 Issuues, But Only Minor.
Color Is Off, The Red & Orange In The Chaetline Should Be Brighter, Although When This Color Scheme Gets Old...Weathering...
Top Of Fin Is Wrong. The Leading Edge Corner Sould Be Sharp, Not Rounded. The Top Corner Of The Rudder Is Supposed To Be Angled, Again It's Rounded Here.
The Cockpit Is Reasonably Accurate, But Does Need Moderate Adjusting. For One Looking From The Front, The Top Is Supposed To Be A Straight From Panel To Panel, Not a Dihedral.

FYI I Just Moved To A Basement Where I Share. i Can Only Display Models In My Room,So I Only Show 200 At A Time & I Rotate. 2 Days ago, I Pulled This Very Model From It's Box. It's Now Going To Stay Out Permanently.
