    Since I haven’t devised a point system yet and won’t reveal points until the end, I’ll give pros and cons: Pros-Really cool and unique design, landed the carrier first try, I like the inverted wings, I can see it being somewhat realistic. Cons- the gap between the wing and fuselage is a little unsightly, and taxiing is slightly difficult when you throttle up and instantly goes 20 mph lol. But I like the details, also a nice backstory to how and why it was designed would be nice
