This is so cool, great work as usual, I ran out of my Spotlight for today, Sorry about that. But I will spotlight you as early as possible. Very good work indeed
@ThomasRoderick I was thinking of moving the engines toward the center line of thrust, well, it will end up looking 90% like Horten Ho 229 (except for the presence of the vertical stabilizers and anhedral wing tips. May be I will come up with that design and give a name after you
@ThomasRoderick Thanks for your input, and YES, knew that once I saw the photo of a fictional model. And no real aircraft might attampt to do so if we think about the force vectors. it is just a "far from reality" fictional.

@BYardley I found your SOPWITH CAMEL proportions impressive, but adding two miniguns felt out of place for a WW1-era plane. Unlike modern aircraft like the A10 Thunderbolt, these planes typically had minimal armament. Plus, synchronizing miniguns to avoid damaging the propellers would be quite challenging. The F1M2 made by @Mk1Els took precedence over your design. Remember, this is just a game, and I hope everyone, including myself, can have fun and learn something from it.
Great job with the coding. Do you have any recommendations for the XML coding? I haven't done any coding for 20 years or more, but I could pick it up if I need to. Still strong with math too. (I wish I have more extra time though)
Great thought and agree. Happyness was during the build and continuous testing and improvement. After that, I will post it. Not all players are builders, so those people can download and play. Thanks if people give credit and upvotes, but the main happiness was in my build.

+1@ThomasRoderick LOL
+1@Noob101 Thanks
+1@ThomasRoderick THANK YOU so much. I will try it and I will give credit to you if I use it

+1Lol, you find this after all, @ThomasRoderick I was reading your "10 commandments"
+1@ThomasRoderick Lol
+1@ThomasRoderick This is a "no blueprint challenge" so the proportion is not accurate. Just build it out of from my memory
+1@ThomasRoderick Thanks for your support, follow, and lots of upvotes.
+1@ThomasRoderick That's exactly what you said. Only the Italian one looks flyable to me. The Japanese one could be if it got the larger wing area.
+1@MAPA, today I saw you on the first page, You are the youngest player at 1.6 years only. Congratulations!

+1this is so cool.. I love it
+1cute ones
+1This challenge is going too competitive, I am seeing so many great works
+1@Speedhunter no worries, I will take the best one.
+1@Speedhunter RS24 makes technically more scenes to me.
+1well done, lovely with the classic PANAM logo
+1It feel so safe and so majestic to fly.
+1Besides the beautiful build, Those windows are amazing.
+1@HariTheSnakk thanks
+1@brians1209 How wonderful it is and who would expect from a seaplane challenge. Thanks for the great work
+1This is Fantastic !
+1Great job with the concept. I did a similar power source before.
+1@BYardley thanks
+1@windshifter1 @XPA @MicroZack1220
+1@MonsNotTheMonster @Boeing727200F @ZacOnTrack
+1@BYardley try for the next time. Add a small structural wings, and attach the wing guns, then. hide the wings. For the next time.

beautiful build.
+1@Apollo018362 Thanks for a lot of upvotes today.
+1thanks for joining

+1@Noob101 ah, thanks. You are right. But I forget my Vexin-A23 when I was sketching this. LoL
+1either way looks beautiful in my eyes

+1@Monarchii thanks for your support, have fun
+1@SomeSPGuyWhoLikesLore thanks- this is based on a photo that i saw a few days ago. Not an exact copy though, since I built it from my memory
+1@Monarchii YES!!!
+1@SpeedhunterFlying wing design is not a new thing. Check out the Northrop YB-35 which flew in 1949 and develop during the WW2
+1@Quercon I see
+1@Quercon I guess you might need some weight as well. Check this out: Kammov K8 which is similar size with this
+1@SkyJayTheFirst Oh, no problem. It is just a bit. my pleasure
+1Nice,
+1It’s a good try. it will be even better if you can slow down the sensitivity of the controls.
+1Welcome aboard with your new concept
+1@Monarchii I have tagged you in the Private. I have 2 of them
+1@Monarchii Yes, I have tried this last night. It flies so well. Great job (and you will be #1 player in a short time)
