I keep wondering how this one would look with Trent turboprops?  The Trent Meteor looked pretty good as I remember.

It just simply looks right! You could easily fool people inot believing this was an actual prototype.

As for the missing canoppy part, you should be able to cut a replacement from the blisterpack AA batteries come in with no trouble.

with the lines of nose sort of making it appear to droop down (just the curve of the upper part it seems to be an optical illusion) I can see the pilots and ground crew Nicknaming it the "Snoopy".Great job I love it :wub: :wub:

This is that rare kind of What If concept that is jumped into with reckless abandon yet comes out with a high degree of panache and polish.  I'm incredibly impressed....and a wee bit jealous!   :wub:
