    @JayJoeCc i've just made a tu-104, basically the same plane with wider passenger fuselage. Had to read about it a lot, it has the worst safety record in russia, not because equipment or structural failures, but because it was very difficult to fly) and all this includes its bomber prototype.

    Btw, you can use wings, engines, empennage and landing gear straight from my tu-104, they are almost identical. You just need to shorten front gear a bit, make a fuselage narrower and move the horisontal stabiliser higher. I can help if you try such a project. Would be interesting to see the results
