(FYI, the plane shown here is a variant of the Model 24, this time with another engine allowing it to go 550 miles per hour) In this challenge, you will have to make a propeller-driven ONLY aircraft that can reach speeds over 460 miles per hour. Modded engines ARE allowed! The plane also must have two or more engines. The aircraft will be judged on:
1. Looks. It should look like it could fly in real life!
2. Speed (duh)
3. Handling. It should me easy to turn and pull up, considering that these will be race planes
4. Interior views (it's ok if you don't make one, but you will get an extra upvote)
1st place: 5 upvotes and a video of the plane flying
2nd place: 3 upvotes
3rd place: 1 upvote
Deadline on January First!
May the best designers win, and good luck to all!

@RABpilot Alright, thanks.
Sorry for my late response, yeah your plane will work @AlphaOneIndustries
@RABpilot Will this one do?

@RABpilot AOI uses those colors for every plane, but I'll try.
@AlphaOneIndustries, my favorite biplane that you've made (and would do well in the competition) is the AOIAXT-P3RF0RM4NC3 2. Maybe put some racing colors on it?
@RABpilot ok.
I think that they'll do @AlphaOneIndustries
Let me know if it needs engine upgrades:

I have a couple of beautiful biplanes with some very amazing cockpit views. And they're a bit fast.
