Thought this was an interesting photo to compose. The Lockheed Super Constellation, a classic propliner from the 1950's in the center, with a Boeing 757 on the left and a McDonnell-Douglas MD-80 series aircraft on the right. All are 1/144 scale, all are Minicraft kits. Russell

Gotta tell ya, I've flown in way too many DC-9 / MD-80 / Boeing 717's in my life to think that they're that much larger than a Connie. The one Connie I toured seemed to have way more space than that photo implies.
