Łukasz, don't forget to fix the air inlet to the APU. It is incorrect in the shape of the NG series, but Max has a "door" there. Check the photo: airliners.net/photo/..c6N9hoGLHvP6rGN2s%3D. Fingers crossed.👍

Looks super neat! You are getting all better at spraying glossy white! And, well if you look at real airliners, you can indeed see some panel lines, so heresy, no.

Well, if you look closer it's not that nice anymore. I hope top coat will level it anyway. Thx

Thank you mates.
I went on to decalling today and already noticed some GioDecal errors 🙁
- no Buzz logo for inner side of the engines
- no '8200' label in front of the front gear well

More findings:
- poor plain grey windows (skipped them, used the Zvezda frames for Max and NG)
- black door hinges, actually barely visible - thrown into the dustbin
- black imitation of the rudder hinge on the bee's face is mirrored (the left side decal has it where the right one should and vice versa)
- poor rudder shape fit
- poor sharklet fit, painted the lower yellow section instead
- too small underside registration
- too tall front door

Very nice Lukasz. I don't do civil aircraft but this looks fab to me!

Thx Neil, I have to admit I made so many errors in such a simple kit that I surprised myself 😉

Sometimes there is a kit where a lot of stuff guys wrong, mate. It sill looks great, in my opinion.
What's with the whiskers? Bees don't have them. 😄

Thanks, I appreciate the support 🙂
I assume these are some sort of pitot tube equivalents.
Perhaps even for the infamous MCAS, who knows?

I have finally reached the end of this flight 😉
Not my best build, but hope you like it.
I just found out I forgot to wash the front wheels, I might come back to it at some point in time, but I need a break from this project 😄
