Post your most Jeb-like Designs


Recommended Posts

I think all of us have done something that would make Jeb quite proud or even say "wut, you are not blaming this on me". When something goes wrong and I need a quick rescue this is what happens most of the time, I take a design that works and try and redesign or add onto things that would make it work for a rescue.

This will be my entry for today. Jeb somehow got stuck in a polar orbit with no fuel, in a vessel that has no docking ports. I could have done something simple like take a rocket up do a transfer via EVA and bring him home and leave the ship, heck even take some KAS and do a fuel transfer. But no I went all Jeb about it and took my best flying transport plane and did this to it.

Here he is stock in all of her B9 good flying greatness.

And here is what happens when you add a few extras,

First we made her quite a bit longer and added some extra cargo room for jebs ship, as I will be bringing the whole thing back to kerbin.

And yes I know I airhogged it but this is for jeb he needs his snacks and cake

Moved the Landing gear to the correct spots and added some bigger tailfins.

Plenty of room for jeb his ship and snacks.

But how is this going to make it to orbit, it has no external rocket engines or fuel tanks or scamjets.....

Wait is this fuel and a precooler....!!?!?!

Drop the cargo ramp and yowzers a M series jet just kinda strutted in there with I am sure at least one roll of duct tape.

Yes it does fly but I have not hit orbit with it yet, I am going to have to rework some more fuel in there to get it beyond 50km and a final push to orbit.

So what all has everyone else made that is just so dumb it might work, or might not but something jeb would get a kick out of.
