Does anybody know where I can find some 3-views for that lovely Dreamliner? (and what about the Dreamlifter?)
On the Boeing's website I couldn't find any.
That's going to be my next project!

Thanks in advance!

P.S. The "Dreamlifter" is officially know as the Boeing 747 LCF (large Cargo Freighter) You may have more success looking with that name.

Thanks to you I now can begin modelling my 787! Cheesy

(if you want to know: I used the Preliminary Information part of that pdf on that site http://www.boeing.com/commercial/airports/acaps/7878.pdf. This was just one click from one of your links) Cheesy

Tomorrow I'll look for the Lge Cargo Frighter!

I searched the whole time on that lousy Boeing site!!! Cheesy

So thanks again!

Which model are you going to do? The 787-3 has the most potential for realistic liveries according to wikipedia.

I decided for the first version, the one that had it's roll-out 2 days ago! If I'm right, that's 787-8, isn't it?!
Of Course I can later just make the fuselage a bit longer to 787-9 and redo those textures, but what's the difference from 787-8 to -3 ??
I'll look at wikipedia for that 787-3! By the way, has anybody a video / a link to a video record of the rollout?

The Dreamlifter-link you gave me is interesting, but there are no drawings, right?
