Sorry if I sounded a bit negative, it does look very nice, it is just the concept that bothers me In the end it is up to TheEpicSquared Edit: You are right, it looks fine. It was mostly the idea of the nose of an aircraft coming off leaving a blunt nose for the rest of the aircraft.

KSC Air And Car Show. [9-17 UPDATE]
Skylon replied to Kerbinchaser's topic in KSP1 Challenges & Mission ideas
Instead of my previous craft, which would be difficult for me to make stock, I would like to submit this one: I call it the SH-T 'Stumper', and it is a trainer helicopter that can also function as a private transport for VIKs (very important kerbals) https://kerbalx.com/Skylon/SH-T-Stumper I believe it comes under the light aircraft category -

Skylon replied to sdj64's topic in KSP1 Challenges & Mission ideas
Don't worry. So will I, with the other things I'm doing, in KSP and in real life -
Have you done water? Try a representation of life! The water bottle if you like.

Voyage - The Final Warning (Chapters 34-36 And Epilogues)
Skylon replied to Ultimate Steve's topic in KSP1 Mission Reports
I had a dream that chapter 8 came out, but i had to go to school and ran out of time. Don't worry if you've got other stuff to do, I'm still hooked! Also, tornados? Where do you live? -
Sounds like my school's history department... I think I'm lucky to have so many teachers (and students) I don't hate. Still nerdy, but so are my friends, and they like science too.

KSC Air And Car Show. [9-17 UPDATE]
Skylon replied to Kerbinchaser's topic in KSP1 Challenges & Mission ideas
An air show, huh? How about a suborbital flight for paying customers? If not you can use just the carrier aircraft from this craft: https://kerbalx.com/Skylon/STP-1A-Vogon Would come under heavy aircraft I think Ah I used partoverhauls... don't have access to KSP right now but will change later Make sure to mention that it is stock only if it is -
I was just wondering, and what do you do while you wait if anything?
-
Well the station will be on an inclined orbit, and soon raised to a 250km orbit

KSP Weekly Challenge Suggestions
Skylon replied to Just Jim's topic in KSP1 Challenges & Mission ideas
Has a MMU been suggested? -
I don't think a craft like that would exist in real life. They would either use a separate carrier aircraft or use vertical launch with rockets. If there is a real world example or concept, then I'd like to be shown it . Remember not even Rapiers are allowed, and they are in development.

It didn't say a stable orbit. Not sure what the highest atmospheric top speed is, but it might be close to orbital velocities

I was thinking of making a simple water-powered rocket, but then I started to wonder if a two stage rocket was possible without external control. I was thinking of some kind of electromagnet/capacitor release, with the magnet attached to the first stage and an iron ring on the second stage. The biggest problem is pressurising/connecting the second stage for launch without the pressure and water escaping before the stages connect. And the electromagnet and iron may be too heavy to make it worthwhile.If anyone else could have a go, that would be cool

Kerbin orbit! Maybe a space elevator, and it could have parts if the Mun delivered to make a miniature moon as an attraction. And of course some huge hangars for rocket construction!

Looks to me like a station resupply craft or a new fuel tank
