Hughes H-1 Racer

8,660 Deloreandude  8.3 years ago

This is the famous racing aircraft constructed by Howard Hughes, as seen in the movie The Aviator. The actual model could go up to 323 mph, and it was made to break the speed record for an aircraft at the time. It does not have the original paint scheme, instead it is the blue-winged alternate version constructed at a later date. This is just a version 1 of it, If there are any flaws in the design please tell me in the comments. Plz upvote, and leave a comment below! Thank you! :D
