Auto Credit Based on Baldovino's Blasto J 210 (weight reduction!!)

Baldovino, president and chief engineer of the SNAW talks to reporters: "Those of research and development tell me I'm a genius, those of contability tell me that squandering millions on useless projects like this amphibious aircraft and supersonic'll finish bankrupt. But I say , it will also have impressions you chumps journalists hard heads, right? Wait, I'll get a ticket office Public Relations ... tell me that I have to stop calling you chumps hard heads. But I say, if something is green, I have to say that is green, not red, right? Anyway, you scribblers, say well that SNAW scored another point with the Neptune!"

In this model I followed more the concept of design than functionality. I wanted something to remember the 2000's seen by people in 1950's. They thought the world would be full of supersonic aircraft / suborbital / futuristic, but since then still existed seaplanes, if they imagined taking off and landing on sea.

The double gears (unnecessary, but very beautiful and detailed), all of the panels, all the details have slowed the aircraft, which was not supersonic. So in the end I had to cheat, and modify the engines by editing the XML. There is no trick to reduce weight or increase handling, but flies very well, although it is very heavy.

Is not based on my J210, it was a step of developed but I removed them. The model has 5 engines J120, four are modded at 110%, and one (the afteburner) modded at 500% thrust.

8 - Afterburner (start on)
