6,359 captainhall  3.7 years ago

Here is the retractable gear version of the Longworth LW.29 SparrowHawk.
I just saw @Panthers4741's "My First Challenge" and thought I should submit it as an entry.

VTOL for flaps

Have fun

    @Panthers4741 I just like to design my aircraft with as few parts as possible so they are easy for people to modify...

    @Panthers4741 this aircraft only has 26 parts. Will that affect my overall score?
