This is a jetliner.  LMKWYT.

Pretty cool, although I have a suggestion:

The wings should not be the same width all the way out.  The back half of
the wing needs to be squared off like on the Lego wing elements you used to
make your large wings.

Naturally, modelling the cylindrical shape of the fuselage is very
challenging, especially the nose section.  The trident-esque engine layout
is really good, I love the way you managed to incorporate the third engine
into the tail.

The wings can't be squared off too easily and still make them that long.  I
ran into that problem in building a bomber with the wings like that.
Depending on the type of aircraft you are making, the wings could be a
consistent width.  Anyway, it turned out rather well, the third enginge is
very nice.
