    Great review! Lots of nice details and information about the various small components of the plane. I have the Gemini Jets 400 scale version of the 200, but i want a large scale 300 model. I was considering getting the Sky Marks one, but it looks too white, and i just love the level of detail on this. Might splash out and get the best there is instead of the cheap stopgap!

      This isn’t correct, Boeing offered the 10 windows on each side on later models of the 747-100’s and the three window configuration could also be retrofitted to ten which was done in some cases. This aircraft always had the ten windows although some of the earlier BOAC aircraft had three windows (G-AWNB for example). Thanks for watching!

      There is one hotel on the property close by, but there are about two dozen close by just off of airport property which are served by shuttle bus service and ride sharing and are about five minutes away.

      @@jefflovesjets8116 I just don't understand why they can't just build a hotel ON THE PREMISES to make it easier for travelers who have their flights canceled. I think many other cities have hotels connected to the airport.

    Finally a just adequate airport for a major city has arrived here in KC. Only problem is the location. Tourists will still be forced to drive through the empty, boring and desolate northland in order to reach the city. It'll comtinue to make a terrible impression on them. KCMO should have just allowed Johnson County to move ahead with their plans to make the new airport. Those JOCO suburbs are densely populated and much cleaner and more impressive than anywhere on the MO side. The only appropriate place to make a good impression in Misourri is the Urban core around downtown.

      Denver is the same way, and I don't think too many people complain. Plus, NO ONE wants to live near an airport. It's a bit inconvenient, but if we had better transportation options, it wouldn't be so bad.

      @@chrism70kc You're right, the Denver situation makes me feel a little better about it. But I bet most tourists take the train to Downtown Denver and that helps their impression. I think KCI should build its own short light rail to the nearby MO river and then have ferrys go back and forth to Berkeley riverfront every half hour, because building a rail system between downtown and KCI on land would cost several times as much as the airport itself. There's no way that would ever be feasible.

      @@hankschrader7050 if a new international airport were to be built in JOCO, it would still be about as far away as KCI is from KCMO. And air traffic would be congested with New Century Air Center and JOCO Executive airport. Plus it would be noise considering there are lots of suburbs in the area. I live in Olathe so I would know.

      @@taxiway207 They were planning on most likely transforming New Century into the new airport. Sam Brownback and others were working on the plans and that's when KCMO decided to act fast and build the new KCI. They didnt want JOCO to steal the revenue even though it technically should belong to them anyways since over 50% of KCI passengers are JOCO residents.
