    No this plane's noce was fine.
    The best nose in avoiding drag was in fact not sharp-the sharp one slice through air, but because it is pointy the rushing air will flow past the surface at extreme speed and slow things down. The blunt one will work fine in slower speed, but once it reaches high speed it acts as a "shield" that just magically direct the fast-flowing air around the plane. You doubt me, check the nose on the Spaceshuttles.
    Some mistake people sometimes make...
    I like this bush plane, but maybe consider having a slightly "thicker" wing-like, increase in width. NOT WINGSPAN!

    It is a bush plane, so It doesn’t have to be streamlined. I also wanted flaps because I like to fly it. @Kaos
