This one requires a mod for it to function properly. Download the Rocket mod from the steam workshop and replace the underpowered engine on this plane with a rocket motor 2 engine (the rocket motor 3 engine could also be used, but it uses fuel too quickly for it to be viable). That should increase the top speed to 1500mph. The landing speed on this aircraft is 280mph for those who want to know. 1 activates the landing chute, 2 activates the emergency landing chutes. I still need to find a way to create flaps for this plane to decrease the insane landing speed. I would also like to know if there is a way to increase the amount of fuel, because the engine equipped on this baby is really fuel-thirsty.

Thanks!
I've been playing this game for a while, testing different stuff out, but this was my first serious design. Hope you like it. Also, you do need a mod for it to fly properly, did you get the mod?
If anyone knows how to make flaps or improve my design, please tell me how, I will highly appreciate it. This is my first serious plane I built so far.
