The McDonnel Douglas DC-9. Requested by @Makcoink.

This classic airliner is equiped two turbojets able to take it to high speeds and a working landing gear that can be lowered and raised using the VTOL switch.

Don't go too hard on her, especially when flying on low settings.

Hope you like it!

I feel ya. Such a perfect creative outlet! Favorite program on my iPad. It also really provides the problem solving aspect of brain games. Maybe even more so

Kinda starting to seem like some people don't like to rate good builds if the designers score is higher than their own...weak.. This is no competition. Great work Teus and PLEASE keep it up!

Nice work my friend! These type of builds don't seem to get the credit they deserve. Theres just something empowering about flying a big bird. The 2d pics look sick btw!
