ME-609

(History): The ME-609 was a German concept design from WWII. It had two fuselages (don't know if that's spelled correctly) and only had one pilot, who sat in the left fuselage. It had one fuel tank in the middle, and could reach pretty high speeds for its' time. The aircraft tends to lean to the left a little bit, so be careful. I took some liberties likep lacing the nose wheel there (it was actually in the back). I hope you guys enjoy this plane!



FYI: This was a real design! I just found it and made it.

Here's the URL to an AMAZING website which has TONS of planes to look at! It has most of the German WWII concept designs (that's where I found out some of the info). Here's the URL: http://www.militaryfactory.com/aircraft/detail.asp?aircraft_id=673
