I like this airplane. Is there a download out there?

Mike Stone's the only free 747sp around, but it's done well enough that there's no need to go and buy the other one that's pay (and I can't remember who made it anyway).

Nothing fanciful, like all Stone's aircrafts, but done well.

There's but one real cure for human stupidity. It's called DEATH.

I got it, I like it and it went in automatically. Good thing for a numbskull like me who is unable to insert his airplanes into the sim. I wish I knew how...

My only complaint with this airplane is that the detail on the upper surface of the wings is rather lacking. He did a very good job on the aluminum skin in showing the joints, et cetera, but the wings are pretty plain. They seem to need more detail. Which begs the question: Can a repaint add detail? How is it done? Do I need to buy software to do it? Breathlessly awaiting an answer...

Those are more like I have in mind, Ashar. They are very nice renderings, as far as I'm concerned. What's wrong with the model--poor flight modeling, performance, just doesn't look right from all angles, et cetera?

They got it wrong in at least one instance: the Saudi airline is not "Saudi Arabian." It's Saudia. They lost me right there. I've flown Saudia; I know. Anyone can search the name. Shows a lack of diligence in the design and researching of the model. Tsk tsk.
