Presidential Island Hopper

89.3k Kerbango  6.9 years ago
Auto Credit Based on MaximusTheMinimus's Island hopper challenge!

Pan-Amazillion President for life Franco Salazo procured an island hopper and using his unlimited funds made it into his own personal "Air force one".
Upgrades include gold plated carbon fiber body.
A pair of outboard jets for more speed and enhanced handling.
Take off from airport or water.
Throttle up and trim down.
Once in the air, Trim CENTER!
The controls are much more stable than the mark 2.
Landing requires power until you are ready to land under 200 feet over the runway or water, then drop power and gently glide in.
Have fun.
