Created for personal Civilian Transport, this all-round transport plane has military, heavy-duty transportation capabilities. Loaded with a simple jeep, credit to @BMilan, airdropping vehicles were never before so entertaining.
Controls:
- AG 1: Open/Close Cargo Door
- AG 2: Detach Jeep
- AG 3: Activate Jeep Parachute
- VTOL: Flaps
- Normal Flight Controls
Be mindful while airdropping the jeep, use pitch/roll to wiggle the jeep out before opening the parachutes.
Huge thanks to @YourWife, @Freerider2142, and @MrSilverWolf for great suggestions, advice, and helping tweaks.
Have fun as always. Peace.

Excited for my second build! Turned out much better than I expected!
@NakAk yeah I can understand that. Sometimes you just want to finish with one to start on another
@Mustang51 Lol, thanks so much, yeah i agree that it is a little bland looking on the outside, i got a little fed up and unitersested because it was dragging on for too long, and school was getting busier so i ended up just posting it. :)
This is pretty neat! The control surfaces are excellent, shape is made well, and the function with the jeep is very cool. I do have to say though that the outside feels slightly too plain (pardon the pun). Overall however, its very nice!
Np@NakAk
@Hedero Thanks so much! Glad you like it!
Hey that's impressive. Especially the airofoil!@NakAk
Ah, that’s all good then lol @NakAk
@jamesPLANESii hahaha, well, I just used a random number generator to pick those numbers and used C as the first letter of Conestoga, but Oh well..... ;P Thanks for the response!
