When every seat is a wing seat
Description
The Asteroid Industries AS-153 Saspan (Peregrine Falcon) is an SST built for long-range, high-capacity routes. Its speed and capacity allow more flights between destinations, and as a result less aircraft have to be purchased and maintained. Its sleek design and low drag-causing pieces allow it to achieve well over 1000kts at a 50,000ft cruising altitude. It is equipped with four high-power turbofans, with the inner two afterburning.
Loosely based on this:
The nose is from my Egg Tu-144, which is using QingyuZhou's Concorde nose.

Crusing
Note:
Land at about 15-20% throttle, and don't flare until you're right over the runway. Doing so will decrease your chances of stalling, but I've found that it's pretty hard to stall this thing. Also, be careful with the landing gear, as it is a heavy plane.

Maybe, SimpleLandia's funds for airliners is kinda low (no lie (RP)), so once we get out cash up we'd love to.
Reminded me of the XB-70 at first. Very cool
yes roll rate a bit too fast
also gears a bit too small
stability is okay though
@asteroidbook345 sure
Close enough for a joke @asteroidbook345
A rip-off of a rip-off? It’s like Soviet inception!
@asteroidbook345 oooo my bad lol
@asteroidbook345 Just state where your nose section is from in the description, simple
