If you're wandering why I throw that flag into some planes that are totally unrelated to it, that's because it's the flag of my island and I love it, you should pay it a visit :D. Anyways, this is my entry for the challange where you can't use the default control surfaces, I made an aircraft where the kind of control surfaces you see would be great: on a Supersonic Airliner. It cruises at FL500 at Mach 1.4, not as fast as Concord but would have a bigger passenger capacity. Not only that but the wings can change to a delta shape for better performance at supersonic speeds.
