DieselJet

This is another one of my original designs, the DieselJet, which, as its name suggests, is powered by a series of diesel engines which in turn drive a turbine to make the aircraft soar. It even makes a distinct sound as it zooms through the air at supersonic speeds. This plane was built mainly due to rising costs in standard aviation fuel, and that diesel fuel would be cheaper and more economical. Someday, even when all the worlds petroleum runs out, this machine could be modified to run on unconventional biofuels, adding an eco-friendly element as well.
