Single Engine Airliner

838 Aerozack  6.8 years ago

Why use multiple engines if you only need one. Now that very powerful engines have been developed, small commercial aircraft can now fly with just one engine. The advantage of having only one engine is that airlines can save money on fuel, purchasing airplanes, operating costs, and maintenance costs. Controls: VTOL for flaps. AG8 for lights.

    @MrHDUE This airplane has an engine that is made out of fire proof materials, so that it is less likely to catch fire. The engine parts that contain fuel and oil are very strong, making the chance of a fire minuscule.
