How to display your Lego 10360 Carrier Aircraft? This frame is absolutely the hit| Mark's Magic

For decades, LEGO has faithfully paid homage to the marvels of aerospace engineering—and in 2025, that tradition ascends to new heights with the release of LEGO® Icons 10360 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft. At 2,417 pieces, this is not just another space shuttle set—it’s the first LEGO set ever to recreate the Boeing 747 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft (SCA), a legendary aircraft duo that redefined how space shuttles reached the sky.

But once you build it—once you carefully align the wings of the 747, attach the Enterprise shuttle, and admire its sheer silhouette—you’ll come to the same realization many NASA enthusiasts already have:
This isn’t a toy. It’s a tribute. And it needs to be displayed like one.

Enter the  display frame—a custom-built showcase designed specifically for the 10360. Because a model this rich in aviation heritage and engineering detail shouldn’t be gathering dust on a desk. It deserves a launchpad of its own.

The Set: A LEGO Dual Tribute to NASA’s Vision and Aeronautical Might

The 10360 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft brings to life N905NA, the first of only two Boeing 747-100 aircraft ever converted by NASA to transport space shuttles across the continental U.S. Built in 1970 and repurposed in 1976, this aircraft carried the Space Shuttle Enterprise, a non-orbital test vehicle used for critical gliding and landing tests in the late 1970s.

LEGO's model captures this pairing with striking authenticity:

• Dual Aircraft Build: The set combines both the Boeing 747 SCA and the Shuttle Enterprise into one unified build—each scaled and detailed for realism.

• Functional Mounting System: The orbiter sits atop the SCA using technic pins, mimicking the real mounting struts used by NASA.

• Landing Gear, Flaps, and Tail Fins: The carrier aircraft includes retractable gear, brick-built flap segments, and the iconic twin vertical stabilizers added to stabilize the shuttle during transport.

• Enterprise's Atmospheric Story: With its lack of heat tiles and engine nozzles, the shuttle's smoother, more simplified look matches its real-life role as a gliding prototype.

With wingspan and length that stretch beyond most standard LEGO aircraft, the model becomes an instant focal point—but it’s also incredibly vulnerable to dust, shelf clutter, and lackluster angles when left on a desk or inside a generic case.

The Problem: Displaying a 747 + Shuttle Without Grounding Its Story

Let’s be honest—traditional display methods fall short for a model like the 10360.

• A glass cabinet? Too short for the wingspan and risky for those twin vertical stabilizers.

• A tabletop? It gets lost among other sets, and you lose the ability to appreciate its underside, landing gear, and iconic NASA markings.

• A bookshelf? You’d have to disassemble half of it just to make space.

This is not just a LEGO plane—it’s two LEGO aircraft combined into one NASA flight system. It demands something more. Something that says:
This model flew history. Now let it soar on your wall.

Custom Display Frame + Wall Mount: The Launch Pad for LEGO’s NASA Titan

Designed to match the proportions and complexity of the 10360 set, the custom aluminum frame paired with a dedicated LEGO aircraft wall mount isn’t just a display solution—it’s a mechanical gallery for your aviation tribute.
