^^ The longer fuselage makes the hump (a characteristic of the 747) look quite small. Infact, disproportionate is the word. |

It doesn't look like the fuselage is longer than the 346, but it is. Hmmm.......maybe it's the hump? _________________ Yeah. |

Looks beautifully well proportioned to me - maybe even better than the 741. The body is made to look a lot slimmer thanks to those monstrous engine nacelles...
Also methinks the smaller tail (thanks to it being further away from the centroid so needs a smaller surface area to do the same job as a larger tail) and the new gen extra long wings. |
