@dilisvarskvlavi the maiden vojage :)
@Baldovino It was a pleasure! This was the first challenge I entered too! ^_^
@dilisvarskvlavi Thanks to enter, mate.
@Baldovino I finally managed to get something to fly with these limitations but she's a bear to keep in the sky! It's amazing that the real Fokker Dr.I actually weighed in at 1,290Lb or so at take-off.
it's amazing what you all are doing with the 1250 lbs limit. Every one is doing reallty smart things.
@Geekpride Nice, mate. Thanks. The second plane sadly is an example plane, but no problems. :D
I've just uploaded my Micro Gull as another successor. If I'm not allowed a second entry it can just be another example plane.
