Horizon 525-200, the first in a great, and hopefully long line of airliners.
Horizon is a passenger plane with only 44 seats, 4 of which large and comfortable first class seats. The plane includes a first class area, decorated with televisions, large couches and beverage stands. It countains 40 economic seats, all with acess to the window. The plane also countains a kitchen out in the back, equipped with all that's needed to pamper their customers.
Horizon is driven by four small, but very powerfull state-of-the-art jet engines, which emit minimal levels of noise, polution, and guaratee a relaxed journey.
Horizon Airlines wishes you a happy flight, and a warm welcome to Horizon 525-200
Texture pack used in this build: Space Architect by Scamper3396
Great thanks to X-hunter33 for the help and tips on how to make the fuselage and much else! Couldn't have done it without him.

The main reason is for cargo purposes as the cargo bay is located inside the belly of the aircraft and lowering the roof would mean less space. In fact, most cargo plane fuselages never drop down and actually go back up almost right after the wings.
At the moment, yours looks more like a 747 than a military aircraft (but still looks good). I would recommend using profile views of a specific aircraft to model it. This is quite big and depending on its length (which i have no way to know atm) will either be a C-5 Galaxy or, my favorite, a C-17 Globemaster. Its too big to be a C-130. Search these on google/wikipedia to get some info. About the tail, it should be higher and more vertical.
The skeleton technique youre using works perfectly as i use it myself but to help you i recommend using photoshop with blueprints of the plane to plan it out, it really works. Lastly, i made a C-17 myself (its my only PMC project so far) if youre interested in checking it out. Yes this is some kind of advertising in a way but im sure you could get really good inspiration from it.
So far i cant say much since you dont have alot built yet but from what i can see, it looks promising!
