Auto Credit Based on Petard's Glorious Bird of Petardia

Note: When landing keep the nose pitched up to avoid crashing.

Greetings! I have decided to aid our lord Petard in the war effort against the Dragon-Slaying Knight. To do this, I upgraded the Glorious Bird of Petardia. (If you don't know what I'm talking about, it may be best to disregard the majority of this description.) To begin upgrading the Bird, I had to first hear the will of the Gods. To do this, I traveled to the Shrine of the Rugs in the center of Petardia, because rugs, man. Rugs. There I meditated for precisely 624 hours before finally hearing the will of the Gods of Petardia. I heard Kevin Spacey translating their will into the mortal language which I could understand. I saw what I must do! I then embarked on my quest to improve the Bird. First, I removed the blocks from the nose and re-styled it. I then proceeded to remove blocks from portions of the body and replace them with fuselage blocks, changing the shape to my liking. I managed to clip the engines into the wings, thanks to some help from Kevin Spacey. I kept the basic wing structure, and did some Dark Magic on the engines to help them run better, of course with help from the Gods. I clipped some inlets into the fuselage to make it run and maintain the style, but the Gods said it was not to be and forced it not to work, so I had to place them on the outside. I placed regular retractable gears in about the same positions they originally were, but on takeoff, the plane began breakdancing. I took this as a sign from the Gods that I needed to use large landing gears, so I did, and the Gods were pleased. Finally, I changed the tail into a slightly more elegant shape, from a more civilized age. Kevin Spacey was pleased, I could feel it. It's hard to believe that this is the same plane, but it is. Pitch control is a little jerky, and landing takes much praying to the Gods, but with a little help from Kevin Spacey you should be able to pull it off. Otherwise, the Godly magic that was placed in the engines allows the Glorious Bird to reach speeds upwards of 500 miles per hour. I painted it to my liking, but you can change it if you like. Feel free to add weapons to your liking.

Hopefully, the coating of rugs I added will negate the time shift impact.

    @Petard the plane is coated in rugs, which should result in the negation of any time-shift impacts.
