I expect to see building developments springing up around MCLF in the not too distant Peter
EDIT.. Oh, and this shows a fair profile of the 787 wing even though it's slats are down

I was just watching the first flight and it seems the wings are fairly straight.......just diedral
Looking at that model it seems Boeing have made their windows too small so perhaps they have the wing wrong too

Having just watched that live take-off of the real thing, it is obvious that the wing curve in this model is correct in flight...almost exactly like one of my shots here. But the model wing curves on the ground are way out

HI peter
That what I was meaning......on the ground....very curved in flight is getting the norm now.

Nice pictures of the 787. Does it have a VC?

I hate its face. It looks like something from the muppet show..

I reckon they've cocked up the xml code to flex the wings. Whoever the hell beta tested that wants something rather nasty putting where the sun don't shine! TBH.. I wouldn't keep it on my system if it were freeware
Email Abacus Peter and ask for your money back. They were very receptive when I told em how sh1te FD4 was

Plastic model kits will need optional wings for ground or flight
