Boeing 777 Cross Section Study Model

This model was built sometime around 2009 to test out the feasibility of building a full scale 1 foot to 1 dot Lego model of a Boeing 777. As the 777 has a 20 foot fuselage cross section, this model is about 20-21 dots wide. The idea was to figure out how many pieces were used to make the contours for 12 feet of the fuselage, then scale it up to the full 220 feet of the real airplane. Seats were placed in the model later so it could be presented at shows, though I'm sure someone will point out a 2-3-2 configuration is almost never seen in a world of 9 and 10 abreast 777 economy seats.
