    I don’t get it, it’s pretty to look at, but only goes just under 300 mph (255 KIAS) at low level with the J15 (small jet engine). I swapped it out for the J50–3x more power, plus added more fuel, but it’s actually 50 mph slower! Something with either the intakes or exhaust, not sure what's going on here. Pretty build, though.

    Very well done. Lacks a bit in a fuel department, and it's a bit slow, but other than that, great job. Since I see you have xml edited some parts (through Overload mod, I guess), you can set mass of a large fuselage block to 0, fill it with fuel, and set scale to "0.25,0.25,0.25". Then just hide it in a plane. As for speed, increase "PowerMultiplier" (again through Overload mod).
