The History

The English Electric Lightning is a British fighter aircraft that served as an interceptor during the 1960s, the 1970s and into the late 1980s. It was capable of a top speed of above Mach 2. The Lightning was designed, developed, and manufactured by English Electric.

Made out of Solid Blocks - avoiding solid and hollow fuselage

I made this plane out of hundreds of solid blocks while avoiding the use of "fuselage blocks" for the @Randomplayer's "BLOCK CHALLENGE" - Beside various solid blocks, nose cones, engine inlets, wings, enlarged text, and stock parts were used.

    @AirFrance747400 The INLET is under the PROPULSION category, and not under the STRUCTURE. So I use it.

    @WinsWings that’s a fuselage part, which I’m pretty sure is not allowed (but a cool plane anyway)

    @L3FT2R1GHT It's a "nose cone" (the little red block in the sandbox) not the fuselage block
