As an aerospace engineer, I was fortunate to be involved in the Global 7500 program at Bombardier for 10 years. I wanted to pay tribute to all the amazing people who work on this aircraft and fly it. Since I'm also a lost cause AFOL (Adult Fan Of LEGO) who likes building with bricks, this project seemed like a great way to combine both passions.
If you like this model then I am humbly asking for your support on LEGO IDEAS:
https://ideas.lego.com/projects/edbaca4 ... 873f8a101f
The LEGO IDEAS platform allows fans to submit their own creations. Every trimester, LEGO designers will review all projects that have reached 10,000 votes and decide which one will become an offical LEGO set! It only takes a few minutes to create an account and you can support other aviation projects.
Built at 1/60 scale, the model has an impressive wingspan of 53 cm. With almost 1,500 pieces, it comes with a lot of features:
- Removable fuselage upper section, revealing a fully detailed interior from cockpit to bedroom.
Moveable control surfaces: flaps, stabilizer, elevator, rudder and ailerons.
Both engine cowlings can be lifted to reveal interesting details of the turbofan.
Opening cabin door: welcome aboard!
Classic stand with adjustable pitch/roll for personalized display.
Landing gear can be added/removed and will support the model for freestanding.
