Don't feel too bad; my Father once built outta my legos (as a kid) a big-ass
(can I say ass on here?) plane that almost looked like one of those cargo
planes with propellers. I think I have a photo of the model stuffed into my
boxes, so if I can dig it out, maybe I can have it scanned and posted
somewhere.

As far as I can remeber thought, it could fit on a standard Baseplate roadway.
It also utilized a rolling door from the Police Command Base. If I had the
photo, I could tell more.

So, don't fret. If my dad could make a big jet, then someone else can. And,
how are you gonna put the engine on the tail if I may ask?

I was planning to build a realistic minifig scale Jumbo 747, then I figured
out the dimensions of it, consequently I quit the whole project, because:

A: It would be near 30 studs wide(God knows what that would be with the • wings!)

B: It would also be 22 studs high (With upper area included, but not counting
the tail!!).

C: It would probably take up three or four 48x48 grey baseplates in length.

D: You couldn't pick it up and whiz it about the room.

E: NO airport made out of Lego that I know could EVER handle it.

So, in all, this plane could almost crush Millenium City. Now I've set my
sights on a more scaled down version of a 727 instead.
