Boeing B-52 Stratofortress

I figured that since I had already built the Molot, it was only a hop, skip and a tiny jump to build a BUFF, using the Molot as a basis...

Long story short; it wasnt.

But after many CTDTs and much swearing here it is. My take on the B-52 Stratofortress.

Very easy to fly - open the taps and trim up slightly. Roll is a bit sluggish, but she is an easy kite to fly. Much less likely than the Molot to self destruct in a dive, too.

VTOL up opens the bomb bay. VTOL to neutral to close again.

Have fun.
