I haven't had to build an airliner in over 6 years, I forgot how simple these kits really are. Here is Minicraft's MD-82 built OOB.

Great looking bird!! Did you use Alclad II or Bare Metal Foil for the finish?

That is beautiful. As an old MDD employee I have wanted to build a decent DC-9 or variant for quite awhile. This post convinces me that Minicraft kit is worth building!

It went together very easily, only filler needed was around the cockpit windows, but since I was using the decal windows this was an easy fix. The build really was painless.
