My first flight was in 1973 in a Boeing 720 and I was very scared. The following year I was on a 720B and by then I liked it. Well I have wanted to build these planes ever since then and now the time has come.

I once had bought a 720 from Welsh models but never got around to build it bu now I used the stabilizers from it on the 720B build. But the problem is that I now have two planes that are missing engines. The Roden JT3C are to big and the 720B need some JT3D engines.

For the JT3C I am trying to combine the pylons from Roden with the nacelles from Welsh Model. I need to add some plastic to the bottom of the pylons.

I have to use some Revell engines for the JT3D but I'm not sure how to proceed. I tried to reshape an old engine (on the right) but I feel that the "bulge" is to thin. Perhaps I should try to make it larger or just forget about it and use the engines as they are.
