Counties is right  :lol: alot of Ireland would be needed  :wacko:
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Close!  the Tristar was the other 3-engine wide body airliner...the Mighty Lockheed L-1011
So I got that going for me...which is nice....

They're easy to recognise the Tri-Star has an S bend for its #2 engine so the exhaust is on the centre line of the aft fuselage, whereas the DC-10 has a straight through duct for its #2.

Seeing the differences between a DC-10 and an MD-11 is harder, specially as there are a zillion different engine exhaust versions for the DC-10, some of which are JUST like an MD-11!
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

And yes, I was working on three different models during the 1 Week Build, but only two of them are actually entrants.

Speaking of which, I better get back on them right now!

Would be different if they were military birds ..still remember those ..not bad considering  <_<
