With some giant cargo planes had to come some giant airliners too. This one has 3x the wingspan of the IceMarlin and handles pretty good, doesn't stall immediately after a strong pull up. It is also pretty good at staying lined up while landing with crosswinds, so using the CLES is optional.

@kgv23 thx man
@phanps @Liquidfox @SSSvaSSa thx a lot guys!
@Solarisaircraft they are not that complex, I try to keep the "Simple" in "SimplePlanes"
@spefyjerbf I'll take a look
Looks cool. Your style reminds me of what I tried to accomplish with some of my previous styles.
Always love the ultra-complex wings you make. As you always say, they are perfect for landing in all weather, up to Category 4 hurricane speeds.
