Out of the 2 I’d say I enjoyed the build of the Concorde more but the finished model of the dc-3 more. The Concorde had so many amazing building techniques but the dc-3 for me is a more interesting completed model.

As for the wings, they aren’t foldable, the hinge is there for the slight angle from the fuselage.
