Auto Credit Based on TehNewDucky's The Mk. 18 Race Variant Tweaked

Just had a great idea. Why not make big, bulky, and hard-to-take-off planes? For this challenge, planes can not have weapons, must weigh at least 50k pounds, must have a minimum wingspan of 45 ft, and must have at least 80 parts. This plane is one competetor, mine, and you can use it for testing your plane. Good luck to all competetors, deadline for challenge is 4/20/16, and the tourney will proceed from there. Your plane needs to follow these rules or it will be disqualified. Your plane needs to be of your own origin, no taking others' planes. Tournament rules for crashes, and your planes will have a chance at bonus points for nicest plane and fastest completion time. Good luck!

    @xXANDYXx However, as I cannot earn the style points due to bias, you did earn some bonus points. I'll notify a friend so you can get an up vote.

    @xXANDYXx Due to the Tigermoth requiring the vtol to be moved, it was unable to take off and was disqualified.

    @xXANDYXx don't worry if your plane is hard to
    build. It is a challenge after all!

    Thanks @TehNewDucky I didn't mean to copy you design by any mean, I was thinking of a star fighter but I guess it looks quite similar to that of yours.

    @xXANDYXx Interesting take on my plane. It is modified enough I suppose to count as a new one. If I hadn't built it I wouldn't recognize it.
