    Well anyway. I just realized that cockpit itself was made with 140 parts. So now I'm making two seater version without cockpit interior.

    @DARZAVIATION well in that case I'll rather make completely new airplane. Is it ok to not delete this plane and let it stay here without being part of rating?

    @DARZAVIATION I got carried away a bit and forgot to check it before release. In rules was also mentioned that it should be mobile friendly and it is. I made this whole airplane on my phone. I used my PC only for painting and making screenshots.
