Finally built a working spaceplane!

The HMSP-1 is a one-and-a-half stage to orbit spaceplane, using two Rockomax Jumbo drop tanks that are detached at 15.000 meters above sea level. It only uses rocket propulsion.

First off, congratulations! It took me a long time aswell to get one in space. Second I think it's very unefficient using rocket engines only next to that it's quite large guessing it's all fuel and thats why you have a one and a half stage plane. It would be way better to use as much jet fuel as you can while your still in the atmosphere. When you would have that it would be a full blown SSTO because there would be no need for dropping external tanks. I see you use B9 wich mean you have the large SABRE engines at your disposal, 2 of them usually do the the job . Just a friendly tip. ^^

Here is an example. My craft can carry 51 tons to orbit. And from a quick first look I come to believe it's smaller than yours.
