Hey,
the 747-8 freighter variant lives! Well it has the -8i textures, but now it has the new model with all the new animations!

A picture of both versions. In the foreground you can see the freighter, which has the upperdeck from the 747-200 (!) and the textures from the 747-8i. Yes I'm gonna fix that as fast as I can.

The freighter got it's new textures. Now it looks like a real freighter! There's still the big side-door missing.

I disregarded those rivet outlines, since they cannot be vividly seen in real 747s

A330 is not dead, it is very much alive and so is the 777!
