As most of my followers know, I have never sacrificed performance for the looks. It was pretty hard to do that here, but I succeeded. What you are looking at here is a 30' style airliner, fictional, but somewhat influenced by Douglas Dc 3 and other airliners of the time. As is expected from airliners, it is not very maneuverable, but is really stable. Takes off at around 120mph, lands at approximately the same speed. Since it has a lot of drag on its own, airbrakes are not included. I hope that you will enjoy this aircraft, and if you do, hit upvote.
PS: i really wanted to add more details, but my phone started to overheat.

I knew it's good at landings, but didn't try to land it on a carrier. Thanks for the feedback.
Perfect landing on the uss jundroo. What a fun
@Ahtzee thanks. I'll make it into four engine. I thought of doing it originally, but decided against it, because I thought wings would look to crammed. Now that I look at it, it really looks like it could use them.
@Cedy117 @TheTMac @FlOu thank you very much guys
What a dream to fly and looks great
@MaleticAirplanes btw it's cool that you took inspiration from the classics to build a custom airplane. Good work
@MaleticAirplanes
I'm not making you do it but that's up to you! 🙂
All I'm saying is it reminds me of it. To be clear.
I have been following you for a while, and even though I have seen many of your planes, you still continue to impress me. Keep up the good work.
Very nice
@Ahtzee ok. I'll see to upgrading it to Dc 4 specifications tomorrow.
@MaleticAirplanes
It just reminds me a lot of a dc-4 other than two missing props.
@Ahtzee I'll see if I can. If it includes changing fusulage, then no. If it's just adding engines, that will be piece of cake
@MaleticAirplanes
You can turn it into a dc-4 real easy. Lol
@MaleticAirplanes no problem
@Himynameiswalrus thank you. I'm glad you like it
Awesome!
@General360 thanks
