Today my space agency started work on a ridiculous reusable first stage concept, nicked from inspired by the Kerbus' Kadeline-project. Behold, I present to you the Kerbodyne Aerospace Reusable First Stage - mk. 1 (commonly known as the "Fat Flying Sausage"): Tests were conducted to analyze the stage's flying capabilities, see pictures and link to album below. The first test revealed some ... minor issues regarding the runway's landing weight tolerance. The second test helpfully led the boffins' attention to some problems regarding the landing gear placement. (Sources close to the project report that an engineer was fired. The disgruntled ex-employee was last seen driving his Kerliant Robin out of the Kerbal Space Center.) The fourteenth third test was deemed a success. Oh, by the way: The gazillion parachutes you see in front of the craft were there just as an indicator of the engineers confidence in the design concept extra safety measure, and is by all means no means an integral part of the stage's landing system. If you by now have concluded that my space agency has initiated a million-funds-screw-up, you are probably right.

Pretty fuel tank and texture! Oh, and being able to select textures on fuel tanks is great news! However, I agree with DMagic. The high quality models does emphasize the need to remodel some of the current parts. Anyways, good work! Will for sure buy the DLC!

Today's goal was to flight certify my newly developed Space Shuttle. Val, Jeb and Bill readies for the test: It went aside from a crash landing and revert to launch mostly as planned. Have a look in the album below for the details. http://imgur.com/a/zAaAy
