The AHS-13 Ikarus was created for Winswings Push-Pull Propeller Challenge

Operation

AG4 - Fires explosive bolts to separate crew compartment from aircraft
AG5 - Deploy parachute
F5 - Pilot View
F6 - Crew View
F7 - Reconaissance Camera View

Stall Speed = 93 mph (approx.)

Be careful during landing, as the rear prop can strike the runway, so minimum flare on landing!

The (Alternate) History of the AHS-13 Ikarus

Designed in the closing year of WW2 as a high altitude reconnaissance aircraft, the AHS-13 put the crew in a pressurized egg suspended between two booms. The large wingspan gave the AHS-13 a very high flight ceiling, allowing operations at more than 54,000 feet. The  airplane featured a crew compartment that could be jettisoned as an escape pod in case of in-flight troubles.

The aircraft only entered service in small numbers as it was no longer needed when the war ended.

Designer's Notes

This push-pull engine that Winswings created is really cool, and I couldn't resist entering the challenge even though it was a bit of a rush.
