Aeris 4A: To Duna and back

[ron1n1]

Hi

This isn't a challange just more of a curious question. I recently took the Aeris 4A out of a test drive with FAR and ended up landing on Duna using only the stock craft. Has anyone else ever made it to another planet using a stock space plane? I ran out of fuel on the return flight but with better planning I could have made it.

That's not exactly stock, you had FAR installed.

My mistake

I imagine that with a NERVA instead of a LV-whatever, you can get further.

Also, here's another challenge you can try out with the Aeris 4A if you want. Land it on the Mun. It takes a bit of finesse since there's no air.
