After watching (several times) the most excellent movie "Those Magnificent Men and their Flying Machines" I felt compelled to make a plane reminiscent of that era. A tribute to the days before the FAA when you could strap yourself into any most bodacious of contraptions and go upitty-up-up... or come downitty-down-down. This particular flying machine is not particularly based on any aircraft in particular, But rather the conglomeration of my limited knowledge, extravagant fantasies of this most excellent era, and pictures on the web. In flight this machine may attribute monotony, but it soars triumphantly and its stability is sterling at level flight. However, pitch up too much and you will land yourself in a flat spin.

It's a shame this didn't receive as much popularity, when it is a brilliantly made plane. Any plans to make a flapping plane as well?
Amazing, It flies like a dream, and is very unrealistically realistic.
This looks incredible!
I feel like Indiana Jones flying this around Maywar. Plus it goes upitty-up-up, AND downitty-down-down. Bonus points for that!*
*That was a song reference, I'm not a crazy person lol.
I bought that song. I haven't seen that movie yet.
