Auto Credit Based on LonelySpaceGuy's B747-400 Root Stable

Scale looking Boeing 747-400 giant Airliner with interior and transparent cabin glass windows.

The legendary 747 needs no introduction, the best selling four engine Jumbo Jet Airliner ever, nearly every major Airline in the world had this plane as their flagship at some point in their history. The 747 became the symbol of the golden age of air travel when it first flew in 1970 and it remained the biggest passenger jet in operation until 2003 with the unveiling of the purely double decker Airbus A380. Today, with the inevitable popularity and practicality of long range, fuel efficient twin engine jets for long haul transcontinental flights, this double deck icon is slowly disappearing, with only a handful of airlines still keeping their 747-400s for passenger service. Even the freighter versions are being replaced by twinjets, too.

Behold my recreation of the "Queen of the Skies" the iconic Boeing 747 on SR2. I guess I still keep pushing the limits of my craft building as this resulted yet again to my most difficult creation so far - A Boeing 747 that is not even derived from the stock craft Simple Airways (SR2's 747) and proudly one of the few 747 builds that is made from scratch and it even has drood accessible interior! With over 780 parts, this is now the most complex of the Airliner build series I made so far. This 747 was almost never to be as I almost gave up when I was starting to build it a week ago - particularly that nose upper deck area which was very difficult (it also costed me a hundred more parts) but I pulled it off somehow and here is -my best aircraft build so far! The finished build turned out really stable and respectably controllable specially with roll and yaw. You won't need to preset a pitch up range, upon reaching a stable altitude, throttle down to about 85-90% power and hands free it will slowly climb to its cruising altitude.

Two decks that has see-through windows and doors (although the door at the upper hump deck is only used in emergency) and accessible through a ramp stair your drood can climb into,
Inboard flap with the 747 unique Krueger-triple slot flap system (the outboard flaps is supposed to be the same, but problems develop in testing so only a double slotted flap is installed) and a huge, two split rudder.
As the parts count approach 800 my phone was getting laggy at flight testing the plane so I intentionally didn't add more stuff and detail on the craft (and I forgot to add the cockpit door).

IMPORTANT:
SLIDER1 + DOWN/NEUTRAL = EXTEND / RETRACT FLAPS - about 50% flaps down for take- off / full down at landing approach and landing.
(NEVER put Slider 1 to UP or the flaps will be at risk of breaking)

*The pitch elevator, might not be too effective, I recommend using the "Pitch Trim AG+Slider 2" function to have a more responsive pitch control. Rudder and Aileron controls are good (do not use hard rudder/aileron when airspeed is over 190 mtrs/sec as it might break the surfaces)
*NAV Lights now activate with the Engine AG
* All other Functions are identical to my previous airliner with Interior builds
*Flight Tested on RTSS with the beta version of "Brittle Rockets Update" (beta tester BTW)
*Lastly don't mind the "ledge" obstructing the frontmost main deck passenger door when you open it (it's part of the lower half of the cargo bay fuselage) - your Drood can
P A S S through it like magic.

    @mateotrejo check out my latest uploads of planes in the site. Download the JAL 747 or the Pan Am 747-100 which are steerable on ground and highly controllable/responsive to stick inputs. This first version has defects, cannot steer in ground and is stiff to fly

    I used the 747, but it doesn’t fly when I put the right joystick down

    @FelixFan1 I'm happy it turned out quite beautiful - it had to be. The 747 (the dash 400 one) is my all time favorite Airliner!
