Considering the small scale and some of the absolute goofball sets we've gotten in the past, I think the proportions here are alright. I reckon the cab height problem can be solved pretty easily by replacing some of the yellow pieces with black ones to bring the black colour lower, see quick and dirty edit below: The only other thing would be having a new tyre mould for the 30.4x20 rims, rather than what they went with here. Alternatively, you could swap the yellow wheels for black ones, and add some sort of 4-stud diameter yellow hub assembly to make the rims look smaller.

Sweet heavens I remember being absolutely in love with the complexity of the Concorde build, it's probably my favourite Lego building experience ever. It's got the entire suite of construction techniques - Technic, small bricks for SNOT, large City clamshells, long beams, tiles, C-clips. It's got everything. Having watched Balazs' review of the Shuttle Carrier, it looks like it's gonna be even more interesting than the Concorde, even if the final thing's aesthetics look a bit dated. The only thing that's probably not gonna be as enjoyable is the Shuttle, it looks like a kinda boring and basic build
