I'm personally still planning on building a 747-400 to MF scale... I've figured
out the dimentions (6' X 5') and while i'm not anywhere near close to
starting.... i'm finding that the windows (!!) and 500 chairs will be hard to
come by :) especially in any sort of color scheme. I also thought about a
aircraft carrier, but it won't fit in our apartment (it would be greater than
20' long, and i'd need over 5000 minifigs!) we'll see what i can come up
with...
