AV-10 1936

119k DestinyAviation  9.0 years ago

This 1936 (fictional) French aircraft was designed for (the time) relatively high-speed flight while being as light as possible. As such, this little beauty weighs around 2,200 pounds and flies over 150 miles per hour, thanks to its' 450 hp engine. Made out of wood and tarp and with the pilot sitting above the fuel tank, it was dangerous to fly. The engine was positioned behind the pilot and the pilot himself sat in a large chair in a "cup" style of cockpit. There was also a gunsight, but this was only meant for lining up for take off and landing. NOTE IMPORTANT: THIS IS NOT FOR ANY CHALLENGE
