Looks cool. I'll bet that sucker was fast before it ran out of gas.

Where did you get the engine pods?

:thumbsup:

Strewth, I'll bet that's quick!

You better get on to Flight Refuelling fast and get them to develop the product a bit faster! :)

Those pods are off an Arado Ar-234 I think, yes? WhatEVER have you planned for the rest of it? Twin Griffons? :)

What are those guns, 40mm?!?!?!? They look positively Massive!  One hit and your plane's a pile of scrap metal!  Just dodge him long enough and he'll fall out of the air though, I don't think he's got enough fuel to do a whole lot with four engines, but I agree with Ed, she's probably Ludicrous fast before the tank hits the big old E.

Beautiful work!

Some concepts just leap off the screen at you and this is one of them.  Am going over to post as a potential Whiffie nomination right now.

Incredible!!!    :wub: :thumbsup: :bow:

Well, I certainly didn't expect THAT!!!! Wow! That is a very unusual layout.

thanks chaps, way too kind  :thumbsup:

as Kit says I used the alternative 4 engine power plant from a vintage Frog Arado AR234 bomber, you get the option of using 2 engines like the Me262 or the 4,  and they seem to fit very well with the Spit wings...maybe I should add some large drop tanks?  ;D

I think there hydrogen engines. Compressors take moisture out of the air and mix it with a bit of flubber juice and that mean machine is going to just run and run.....rather quickly to.

Vostoc,

You do? Get both types of engine pod I meant......  :o

I've had that kit since forever and never opened it!  ;D :lol: How stupid could I be, the thing is obviously designed as a scource of Whiff parts. I built the Dragon one after it was released and never even glanced at the Frog one again.

I'm off to The Loft.
