    Yeah, TWA, always remember the L1049 on the film The Aviator. This version is the Super Connie L1649. @lewisxu0513

    I think you are the only other builder who is using my big block technique. I like this plane and how you spent all those hours getting the angles right. Few people here know how much work that is. This is the first time I've torn open a plane in many months to look inside. Nice job.

    I had a similar problem with my F/A-18. The flaps push the wings up, but the wings are behind the CoM, so the nose pushes down. @Authros

    Not very good, you should probably make it so it can turn better. Also, it keeps crashing. So you should make it stop doing that.
