Yes, umtutsut is right. The SCA was a -100, so paper mate's build looks correct. The SOFIA laboratory was a 747SP, which is also slightly modified to have a taller fuselage than the regular 747. Confusing...

Better check again, Murph: American Airlines Fleet of B747 (History) | Airfleets aviation I see only 2 SP's, 1 200, and the rest were 100's. NONE of the shuttle SCA were SP versions.

That's what I get for trusting Wikipedia.

There were well over 50 different operators of the SP, between airlines, government, testing and even corporate use.
So a SP would be a welcome addition to the fleet. |

<Spock voice> Fascinating...
The page I found on Wikipedia listed both the -100's and SP's as operated by American, which page did you find?

I think he meant the SP's from 1986 to 1994.
Luckily, I'm just a builder not a designer!!! Papermate |

I remember flying on a UAL 74 SP, SFO-NRT back in the early 90's. I don't think United flew them for long...it was a temporary solution to the long haul. 747-400 made them obsolete. 747SP - Info and history of all 747SP registrations & airframes

With as much trouble as I got in to for the SCA and Dreamlifter, I dunno if I want to do another version...
