is a replica to the wierd ww2 aircraft known as the XP-55. I like to call it the XP-55 Ass ender because the prop is on the ass. This aircraft has good speed and turning it was made to the best it could be in simple planes. Please comment with other ww2 aircrafts I should build.

Looks great! I built one of these myself and had one hell of a time getting the damned thing to fly. No idea how the engineers got it to fly back in the 40s.
