Editors Note

I recommend air start when flying. I will put a link somewhere to the Arado Ar 234. Don’t pull hard on the stick when starting the engine. It can be very fast, but it’s a fun plane to fly!

    No, it was way bigger. I couldn’t build it because of its size. It was probably the size of a 15 story building @KnightOfRen
