    What did you do in KSP1 today?

    A bit previously I did some flight-testing of two of my new airliners.

    Liner-2MA

    The Liner-2MA  is a redesign of my old 1.1 Liner-2 design comprising of a Mk1 fuselage cross section powered by two Turbofans.

    Liner-75

    The Liner-75 is an all-new airframe made to fill the gap between the Liner-2MA and Fr-30.

    The Liner-75B is the variant of the Liner-75 sporting a pair of more powerful engines, which in turn is a full-size Goliath since the Goliath on the original Liner-75 supposedly be in the 1.875m diameter, but the size is proven to be too underpowered for an airplane this size and weight. Hence, the Liner-75 uses a Tweakscaled Goliath with a diameter of around 2.1~2.2m.

    And tested out my first variable geometry wing for my new version of my B-3 supersonic bomber.

    But KSP kinda hate bells and whistles from real-life planes like this variable-geometry wing, so after takeoff the wings flap a lot and couldn't retract. This is what happened in the end.

    I'm left with the wing root.

    But still it performed pretty well at high altitudes.

    Shortly after I've took off again, en route back to KSC.

    ... where I'm attempting to do a stunt. Fly the approach inverted then get back right-side up right before touchdown.

    That landing had been Ryanair'd too much...

    ... and Jeb dies. But I reverted back to SPH after that.

    But that's not the main focus anyway.

    F-82 Spin Mustang.

    Someone on r/KerbalSpaceProgram made a challenge to create a flying replica of this edited F-82 Twin Mustang. Everything looks good since I took @blackheart612's Airplane+ Stallion and did some modifications to it and here he is.

    Flies well, very maneuverable, STOL-capable (but landing & taking off from the VAB is not part of the flight testing) and most importantly, looks ridiculous. Extra care is needed, however, as this plane is susceptible for a flatspin if Yaw is applied too much. Recovery is not that hard. Throttle up to full, pitch it down, then pitch it back up. Will be up on KerbalX later on as I need to tweak its control surfaces (since stable flight is achieved after tweaking the control surfaces in "flight" scene).
