bootneck Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 With a decent set of plans I could scratch those myself and I'm not an expert. Some of that money could then be used to source a 737-800. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlamgat9 Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 I got the S&M kit too and was similarly underwhelmed. A corrected engine intake and some decals would have been appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It misses a lot of bumps as it was completed before the actual aircraft debuted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
