On the subject of livery requests, we definitely need the Braniff 747-- referred to as “The Great Pumpkin”

How different are the 747-100 and 200?

Engines, range, fuel, weights, fuel tanks, avionics, technology, etc. Very different, like the difference between an A320 and an A320NEO.

hope this aircraft will get added soon or in the rework

An undeniably important variant. Would be nice to have, but with the way current developmental updates are going, you might want to look out for the 200 and see that it is preserved.

Some nice engines on this bird, looks great!

Any operators of the -100 but not the -200?

I believe AA was one. They had 9 747-100s but only 1 -200 which was leased anyway so it doesn’t count :P

Might be wrong though
