Dave,
I took it from the airplanesuperstore site.
www.airplanesuperstore.com
If you ever want to know where people get images posted on these UBB forums
just right-click on the image
and then click `properties'.
You will see the URL it comes from.
Re: the things you pointed out...well maybe that shop got a different sample. I forget if the VC-137s/Air Force One 707s have 4 turbo compressors (i.e. different no. 1 engines).
The window line...well over the wings it looks like a big drop to the wings where the emergency exits are. But everyone has their own `eye' for such things and that is one perspective I am sensitive to.
Here is the Corgi image of the Pan Am. It does look better than the superstore image of the VC-137. I don't see an Air Force One image on the Corgi site.
(Later
ah here it is.... hard angle to judge window line.. but you are right..does appear better than superstore's image and the number one engine has the straight pylon!
Let's assume Corgi's samples got better , not worse!
