[Bug]Infini-Planes now possible in 1.0.5!

[panzer1b]

Well as the title says, infinite range planes are possible in 1.0.5!  infinite fuel jets apparently work now, something i discovered today accidentally.  Take a craft made of a cockpit on front, mk1-mk2 adaptor, mk2 bomb bay (short one), another backward facing mk1-mk2 adaptor, then any jet engine on the back.  Set the fuel level within the 2 tanks to minimal (but there has to be some fuel inside them at all times).  Then take a science-jr, place it on the rear node of the bomb bay, and take any small fuel tank such as oscar-B and place it on the front of the science-jr, you can drain this tank completely.  Add intake anywhere (such as on the nose if you decide to use inline intake), or a radial one, doesnt matter from my tests.

the result: a plane that has 50% thrust on the jet engine, and not one drop of fuel is used per second!  As fun as this is, please fix it squad, infinigliding was bad enough

This is a known issue by the way.

It's a cargo bay, not a bomb bay.
