One of my first fully functional planes, it features variable-geometry wings, much like a Hellkeska (which it is based upon.) It has the upside of looking very cool, and also being able to carry bombs or missiles on the underside of the fuselage. However, it has the downside of being hard to lift off without detachable gyroscopes strapped to the bottom. In any case, have fun.

    I forgot to move the gun up before uploading it, so download this one instead. It has all the same features, but a guaranteed significant increase in the survival rate of pilots.
