Time spent:: 17

After I started working at the airport in 2013, I also started building some of the commerical airlines we work on. This will be an Avro RJ 85 when/if I ever get it finished. I did a dummy, the horizontal stabilzer is not strait, and am having a lot of trouble trying to get it off to straiten it. Well, I got it off by breaking it off, got it straitened out, now I just have to do soem filling nad sanding on the sides to get it straitened up. Was also able to fix the landing gear so they are straiter

After a lot of repair work and a few years of frustration, this is finished. Considering how messed up the rear landing gear and horizontal stabilizers were, I think it looks good, even though even after all the hours of work, It is still the slightest bit lopsided, but now it is much harder to see it. I started building this when I worked at the Airport in Frankfurt and this was one of the Aircraft we handled, and probably one of my favorites.
