Land on top of ... (No, not the same that has been done countless times.)

[Tex_NL]

'Not again' you might think and you're right. Landing on top of the VAB and SPH with landers, helicopters and VTOL's have been done countless times. This time it's gonna be a wee bit more difficult. I challenge you to land with a fixed wing airplane. No chutes, no downward facing thrust, just good old fashioned wings.

First 2 times I merely touched the roof but had to go-around. 3rd time I almost made it but fell off. 4th I came in too low and clipped the roof. On the 5th attempt I nailed it:

Purely for bragging rights let's see if you can do it too.

Plane:

Landing:

No downward-facing rockets. But I did have rearward-facing sepratrons, for braking. Is that permitted?

You lost a wing ^^

Nitpicking.

So I did. There wasn't a rule against damage...

Nvm... wrong building >_<

I had crash landed (just cockpit left) on the control tower.

Here we go... the right building this time

Here is attempt #2 new aircraft

and again... may have possibly lost my wings again >_<

He seems happy enough with his landing though.

Many attempts, but I can't seem to land a fixed wing aircraft on top of the water tower... yet.

Fun idea! I took about 4 hours! Video makes it looks easy, which it really wasn't! Four exclamation points!
