I don't think this could get more last minute... The Q-35 seats 35 passengers: 27 in the a roomy coach cabin, 6 in first class, and 2 in a VIP stateroom. A friendly crew of six, including pilot, copilot, navigator, and three flight attendants bring (...)

(...) I prefer to see them forward swept, if only for the uniqueness factor. Forward swept wings may actually offer some advantages, depending on the regimes of flight that will be most used.

I have been looking at your under construction pics for monthes and I am glad to see the that the plane is finished. It looks great. Very innovative and I like the modular designs. Keep up the good work. Rich Schoonover (23 years ago, 29-May-01, to lugnet.build.contests)
