    @EACC hey all good! The original plane doesn't have handle very well so it's good that you've redone it lol

    @captainhall I made a variation of this one while you replied. Maybe its even the Gen2 variant of it, but it's your choice.

    @EACC yes this was an extremely amateur airliner. I was thinking about creating a Gen2 variant, but I think that it needs an entirely new airframe and design.

    @captainhall this is a nice small airliner. Assuming you have done this 5 months ago, I'm pretty sure both our designs were still unrefined back then than they do now. I do suggest that you shorten your vertical stabilizer a bit. Other than that you did a great work on this one :)
