Bolide 1 airliner
A bit lazy on the build, but some minor small changes to cockpit layout which I think makes it a bit better then older builds.
The Bolide:
The Bolide 1 was one of, if not the first jet airliners, it was rather small, carrying around ~50 passengers, and its main selling point was that it was...well... a jet!
The Bolide sold relatively well and accumulated many orders, however many of them were cancelled as the aircraft suffered a number of fatal accidents originating from unknown problems with high-speed high-altitude flying, only in later variants were the problems fixed.
No Bolide 1's still fly, but some do exist in museums.
Controls:
Ag1-4 - Engines
VTOL - Flaps
Trim - Trim
Brake- Wing Spoilers
please enjoy!
