Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress

[CommanderSpock]

Ladies and Gents,

The B-17 Flying Fortress!

Coming in at 326 parts and 54.2 tons, it has the most detail I could cram in. Unfortunately though, it has no bombs or bomb bay. It can seat 4 Kerbals in relative comfort, and can fly for a while, given its 14,243 m/s of D/V. It's pretty darn easy to fly, and (probably) won't disintegrate with no warning. Have fun flying!

Have fun!

Update: And how on earth could I forget the help and feedback of Columbia?!

Shouldn't all those wings cause a lot of drags. Looks great. Have you considered slightly offsetting the engines so they don't stick out as much

326 parts for a flying machine. Very accurate.

[CommanderSpock]

Even if the wings do cause drag, it is not noticeable. Thanks!

That thing should have a bomb bay! Mines looks WAY smaller than that incredible thing!

Um... If you want to cover the turbojets you can shove them inside a nostcone.

The proportion is very nice, sometimes that is what makes a replica look its best!

Thanks!

Cool, my favourite WW2 bomber!

You should consider putting the wings on a slight dihedral so they don't 'droop' so much during flight. Really good work tho, pity it would eat up my framerate :-)
