Auto Credit Based on Mkenz's Non-VTOL VTOL Plane

Slightly improved on my previous design.

A tad lighter, a little longer, a little less nose-heavy, a bit prettier, and more stable. She's still very slow (minimum airspeed of about 80mph, max of 150-ish) but very easy to fly, especially in the canyons.

Has fuel for days. Easy to land on the carriers, too!
