Tweaked for this challenge, my English Electric Lightening. Essentially brought up to 60 parts by adding some guns and a bit more detail. AG 1 drops tanks.

Thank you! @Ian1231100 I hoped to achieve mediocrity with this game so to me that's high praise indeed!
What did I tell you? Just one month and you're already a Silver user! I wish I was as talented as you back then.
I'll happily settle for that, thanks @Ian1231100!
Looks: 8.5/10
This is pretty much what a Lightning should look like. I like the way you split the main fuselage into 2 layers, and giving them different colours. Haven't seen a grey-white Lightning before though. The badge on the tailfin looks nice too. A little bit more detail like the RAF insignia would be appreciated though.
Function: 9/10
Very agile and responsive. Takes off and lands with no problem at all. Mild upwards autopitch, but nothing a little trim can't fix.
Accuracy: 8/10
For a Bronze user, you have nailed the shape of the plane, especially the bulge at the belly. Good job!
Few issues I'd like to point out though. First, the split near the end starts way too early. It should start midway along the tailfin's length.
Secondly, the main fuselage looks a tad bit 'fat', especially when viewed from the front. I'd recommend narrowing it down to 2.25 units from 2.5 units.
Last but not least, the landing gear looks a bit small for a plane its size (the rear landing gears aren't even wing-mounted!) If I were you , I would use 1.5x landing gears instead, with the aid of nudging. Then again, since you're an iOS user, I don't blame you.
Impressions: 4/5
A beautiful representation of the EE Lightning, with not many flaws. Especially for a Bronze user. Keep on going and you'll reach gold in no time.
Final score: 29.5/35
Thanks @Ian1231100, congrats on the 6k!
Hey, that's pretty good! I'll start checking it right away.
