An aircraft that requires no tail wings and has amazing handling. Heck I had to invert the pitch surfaces so the handling would be conventional. The forward swept wings make the aircraft less stable unless you account for that, which I have, but it has amazing effeciency and less drag, this aircraft has less than 2000 drag points and turns on a dime, and I will be working on the speed and acceleration of this craft as it can only hit a little over 700 in the right conditions.

@Khanskaya I mean the Handling is mainly due to the Forward swept wings, I just can't get enough of them.
I love it. It's not one of the hundreds of "ocean zoomers" out there that can go from 0-1K mph in less than two seconds. No use for all that speed, there's nothing but ocean in Simple Planes. I LOVE the acceleration and handling of this aircraft, it feels authentic.
