Canardberra

That looks really professional Jon     If I can make a suggestion, what if the inner wing were as the PR.9, extended forward, then the main u/c could go in front of the spar instead of behind, that would work better with the cg I think.

Actually I shifted the main undercart aft as it looked too short coupled, but, I suppose they could stay in the original position.

If I was to seriously work up the concept I'd probably go for some sort of centreline gear with outriggers.

I absolutely love that Canardberra...the first one, that is. The second one looks kinda goofy, adding the old-school fuselage to the modern wing.

Looking forward to seeing this one come along !

There's a clear preference for #1 but I've just mocked it up and the main gear isn't long enough as the wings have to move up when they are moved back. The ideal solution would be Starfighter or maybe Crusader main gear installed in the fuselage but I don't really have anything suitable in the boneyard.

So I'm going with the #2 'goofy' concept. Don't worry, I'll make you love it... Look out for a new thread in the In Progress forum next week.
