            AN here against my hand you can see how big these engines are an these are the main engine parts but still quite a few parts to fit on them an this is why i think they deserve to be seen if i can make it so with tiny hinges an opening an closeing covers panels an hopefully some light fitted to show the engines up as the will be under the big wings in the dull shaded area but firstly ive got to be able to use a razor saw to cut out the panels which will be a miricle in itself for me to do it but as the sayin goes never say never lol
