I see that Nimbus is proposing to release a Boeing 707 for XPlane, in due course. Interesting and the reason why Shensee is not going to upgrade or make the 707 from the excellent 720B he has already made. I await this with interest but foreboding. I bought their BN2B some time ago - excellent in all aspects except the AI had a fixed sky pointer which they have never fixed since its release. Hope they get it right with the 707 pretty hard to fly IFR without a proper functioning AI. 

From that sole preview of the exterior, this looks like a -320. Shenshee could therefore still claim a monopoly on the short body series (-120, -138, -220) if he wanted to. But I doubt that he wants to, considering all the subtle differences: https://airlinercafe.com/aviation-articles/ultimate-boeing-707-guide-84957/

If Nimbus' 707 gets a freight/convertible option, it'll land on my hot list.

Shensee has politely declined all offers to do the long body 707 ala 300 series. As he said it is just too much work and he is happy refining the 720. Personally the 720 does me fine as a Boeing 707.
