I figured that for my first real-plane replica, I would go for something fairly simple. I know I'm not the first to try this, but I think that it came out well. Too bad there wasn't a kind of air intake ideal for this.
Tested ceiling is 93,000 feet.

It may be simple, but it looks good.
Nice. I love the idea of a u2 and it looks great!
I have an air intake for that.
Also, it actually flies quite well at 70,000'+
He actually avoids most of the dumb mistakes of U-2 builds in SP...like making a tricycle gear. Shape is generally correct, as well.

Great potential in this builder!
Not bad for a first post. I sense great potential.
NICE!!! Looks just like the real thing!
