Chico
don't look so far, you have Norbert Rauch in Germany that produce moulded parts, and you have Manfred Koster in Germany also that cut styro parts, and the landing gear manufacturer is also German ( hawe )
you can contact Norbert on his web page at : http://www.rauch-airliner.com/ and he will explain you all what you want, and in german !!!

Yes Norbert is the guy you want get intouch with. I bought Kranz B727 kit and its not totally scale, I contacted Norbert and now I'm looking forward to get his parts to fix errors on my model. His communication is excellent.

ORIGINAL: Zagzoo

What ever happened to AMT's Concord? That plane was enormous!! think it had 4 turbines in it. Saw it for 2 years in a row at the heart of ohio jet scramble 5 yrs ago. They ever get it in the air? Anyone know?

Zagzoo
