The LP-3 was used in the 1970s to the late 1990s as a short range passenger jet. While capable of long range travel, it was mainly used in either city-to-city travel or travel between neighboring states. The delta wing design helped the LP-3 go much faster than other planes and while its T-tail design was semi-unconventional, later models like the LP-3-b converted to a more traditional horizontal stabilizer design, as well as modernizing the plane. This livery, while not too creative, was used by the XLP-3 (the test model) named the Chroma Lightning livery due to the model’s unexpected speed. Hope you like my third ever passenger jet!
