Comic 787-999

1,128 cowelly  7.6 years ago

Loosely based on the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner this COAD (Cowelly Original Aircraft Design) in turn was inspired by the Comic 787-888 as shared with the SP Community earlier today. Thanks also to Barney D and Marie Clare at Scottishjocks for the concept of the Comic 787 as they were planning on designing such an aircraft before their disappearance from SP in early July 2016.

    @Kerbango and @Gnome360 Thank you both for these pieces of advice. Originally aimed for plug-and-play designs that could be shaped into well-known aircraft types. But I'm feeling a little more like a challenge now so I'll look into fuselages.
