Semedian Swanson CAC230LR "IceWhale"

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.

    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.
