I opened a book I bought very long ago, which is an encyclopedia about aviation.
It says that tiltrotor civilian aircrafts would very possibly come true In the future, since it can land at anywhere, so it could replace nowadays regional jets. Would that prediction come true?
Instructions:
Throttle 100% to take off, VTOL up to tilt the rotors forward.
When you're cruising, deactivate 8.
When landing, place VTOL bar back and activate 8.
Trim up or air brakes. Necessary when landing.

Okay... Thanks for the ratings @helilover03
Don't be taken down, what if yours is better than mine :)@TheGuyYouMightKnow
I was in early the stages of making something like this but you've beat me to it.
Thanks! @Darthsecrol
Yup, Same design as the V-280 @JohnnyBoythePilot
lol it's a rotor aircraft, not a jet@Blue0Bull
Weird but creative and amazing creation!
OH now I know why future tilt rotors like the V-280 wont have the engines completely tilting! That's because the exhaust from the engine tilting full vertical damages the runway surface. That's why they probably made the engine break in half for the prop to rotate vertically only!
Thank you @Feanor @destroyerP @SimpleFlow @Dynamicneedle @BrianAircraftsNew @RCBOSS
