Wow! Great! Just when I needed a Boeing 707, I'm already downloding.
Pretty big file though.

Tried your plane, liked everything except for the VC and cockpit; nearly all of it is taken from the HJG 707, and there are a few 21st century stlye gauges as well. Apart from that, well done!

HJG don't make a 707 with VC ..... and George Carty - the author 707 2d panel used in some HJG 707's is credited in Alrots file - so what don't you like about George Carty's work? It is recognised as some of the best.
Do you design?

No, I don't design, I like George's Carty's panel, except, well I have been having a few problems with his panels, and I'm thinking that they might appear in this plane.

We came across some problems, too.. and rooted the troublesome gauges out. One of them even affected the flight dynamics... literally, just it's presence made the elevator trim go goofy..
Spend some time flying her... you'll be pleased..

What a great (let's hear it for the classics) model! Handles wonderfully and fun for us old folks that like to recreate flights of bygone days! Best 707 I've downloaded here, ever.
Only one small detail. The 420 were powered by Rolls Royce engines, which had black "tailpipes" at the back of the engine. The engines on this particular model (and the airlines involved) had the P&W (without tailpipes), which at the time were newly introduced "turbofans," although nothing compared to today's turbofans, they were still a huge improvement over the "turbojets" on the first 707 models.
Que Chevere Srs. ALEJANDRO ROJAS LUCENA, BRETT HENDERSON, y GEORGE CARTHY. Muy bien hecho!

I`ve downloaded it, not tried it yet. but, I`ll say this as god is my witness and all here. If I ever win the lottery (jackpot, not a tenner) a state of the art computer will be crated and sent to Alrot. He epitomizes what the internet was about from the beginning before it got commercialized. I do not forget or say things lightly Alrot! Thankyou to all who were involved but especially Alrot. ;D
