    This plane has a habit of blowing off it's own prop in som cases. Still a good plane though!

    @Verdnan The Simple Planes physics engine needs to allow out of atmosphere travel and near-zero drag will be easy. Of course, they will need to enhance the inventory with a reaction control system and some type of scramjet/rocket solution.

    @Jaredis2 Wow! Nice job. You must be at or near the lower drag limit of a prop plane. The canopy dimensions limit the frontal cross sectional area so we need smaller one.
