    @exosuit : Thanks. I actually made this one in mid-June; fuselage blocks were a bit hard for me to work with when I first started out, but I've really been able to improve my technique, and I've just uploaded one of my more recent creations that makes extensive use of fuselage blocks. =)

    Great first plane dude! And for reminder, you can use fuselage blocks instead to reduce lart count and fuselage can hold fuels too

    @AlternateSteve90 nice one I like it! It is better than my first.......it was called the 'death wish' because it would always crash! nice job keep it up.
