(...) Excellent modelling as always Jon, but having all three sets of wings swept forward just makes it look like a backwards-flying airplane - which simply makes me go "yuck" from an aesthetic point of view. I would have done it with the front (...) (21 years ago, 18-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

(...) Yes, Crimson Skies IS fictional, but it operates on the premise of an alternate earth reality and the level of technology is supposedly that of the WWII era. So even an alternate reality has to have physical and technological realism. That's (...) (21 years ago, 18-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

I remember reading once that the tri-wing+ concept was scrapped when it was realized that it didn't really provide any more lift potential than a bi-wing, but I suspect the switch from WWI bi-wings to WWII mono-wings had more to do with (...)

I dunno, I think you're missing the point. This Crimson Skies stuff is purely fictional, and as a fictional plane straight out of Jon's imagination, this thing is damn cool. I don't like it when insanely whacky but intensly cool stuff like this gets (...) (21 years ago, 18-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)
