De Havilland D.H.88 'Comet' Racer (Modified)
-THIS PLANE IS A LOW-DETAIL REMAKE BASED OFF THE REAL AIRCRAFT-
This is by far my favorite racing plane I ever made. This is the 1934 De Havilland DH.88 Comet Racer. It is fast, easy to control, but it does take a little getting used to. The turning mechanic on this plane is different. This plane has low acceleration and a high top speed. It’s a better distance racer than a speed racer (BTW the gears do retract I was just too lazy to put in detail :I)
