Re: FD scale Never Built Designs
I'm back, maybe, probably. And I did this, based off of something I found on the C5's Wikipedia, a passenger variant of the L-500 (C5 Galaxy)
(credit to shippy2013 for the original C5) (Also, note; I added curvature to the tail because it looked nice.)

Nice additions.
The passenger C-5 would certainly have been an impressive airliner.
RaspingLeech,
Really nice work on the F-22 possible exports but is camouflage paint possible on the F-22? I assumed its special paint only came it 2-3 colours (grey, grey and off-white for insignia?).

Wow
I honestly don't know if there is an actual sketch lying somewhere about the C-5 in passenger configuration which you are following, but if you like a little suggestion I think it would have needed a few more doors on each deck for safety evacuation. One more on the lower deck forward of the undercarriage fairing and two on the upper deck (one fore and one aft of the wing root fairing) may do the job.

By modern regulations (14 CFR 25.807, for those who want to read up, and which can be safely assumed to be at least as stringent as those in the past), you can seat 110 passengers per pair of Type A exits. So as currently drawn, this L-500 could seat 770 (unless there are some exits obscured by the wing). Wikipedia says Lockheed marketed the aircraft as being able to carry up to 1000 passengers.BB1987 wrote: ↑March 16th, 2018, 11:24 am Wow

Re: FD scale Never Built Designs
These are very great additions. And would you like to make the unbuilt 747-700X when you have time? I think it would be nice since the 747-500X and the 747-600X are already on here.
