Part of a series I'm doing taking inspiration from interesting/iconic aircraft throughout history. This one is based on the well intentioned but unlucky Blackburn Beverly, with its fixed undercarriage and outdated configuration it was quickly usurped by the C-130, which was brought into service a year later.

@SpimiRemun Thank you for the compliment :) Yeah it's a bit aerobatic-challenged as some would say
Great design from the Dustbin of History! I took it out for a test flight, and everything was great until I tried to barrel-roll it.
Don't do that, it doesn't end well.
