Made famous by flying ace Barry "Biff" Anderson. This was the plane he flew for much of his storied career. He designed the plane using crayons and bar napkins and engineers scoffed that it would never fly. Biff's perseverance prevailed in the end. He first flew the plane Dec 19th, 1956. He first exploit was shearing some sheep with his scimitar props while skimming over his neighbors farm. This earned him a cozy wool jacket for high altitude flights. Biff flew his beloved boomerang for nearly his entire career. Every time he tried to part from this flying marvel it, even if he ejected, it would always come back.

@joshuaj I seriously mean what i said, i really only spotlight the coolest aircraft. This really is a fantastic cool-blue aircraft, gives me a really good, relaxed feeling for some reason. It's as if its hypnotizing. I'm drawn to this aircraft for some reason, no idea why, but i think its probably the best colored aircraft I've seen on the site.
@flightsonic and thank you too!
Thanks!! @Deloreandude
Extremely beautiful design with the scaled blue color scheme. The unique design is the icing on the cake! Epic job! :D
