Boeing 747 Airplane for Planets

Description
A full scale, fully functional Boeing 747.

It flies quite well, and with similar abilities to the real thing. Takeoff speed is 70-80 m/s and the plane needs a flat strip probably about 600 large blocks long. I can't recommend going faster than 104 m/s but the top speed should theoretically be around 250 m/s soooo...

*The blueprint has the plane attached to a crane ship to start off with. There are very simple directions indicated on the plane to get you started. You can be flying in 30 seconds.
**If you're curious as to why I did it this way, it's because the landing gear must be locked (by actual space engineers 'landing gear' blocks) in the downward position in order to support the plane (hinges aren't strong enough). SE Landing gear apparently gets pasted unlocked.

*This plane can't really taxi due to the nature of wheel suspension when not directly connected to a ship. Steering can only really be done for takeoff and landing at normal speeds using the gyros.

is not working, many blocks deleted in the blueprint

so you have to delete some blocks that are jamming the wheels while with no damage settings

I have the same problem i spawn it in i toggle the landing gear like the instructions tell me and guess what the doors for the landing gears open and i get all excited and then im wondering why the actual wheels wont go down but its still a nice plane honestly. Just needs a bit of tinkering for the landing gear to work :D

@eliasm @mitch.hulsebos The problem is the blast door surrounding the landing gear obstructs it. So just delete the blast doors in the way.

For some reason the landing gear isn't going down, only the doors are going down not the actual gear.
