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.

Gotta agree with Dan, he hit the nail right on the head with that post. Despite employing SNOT techniques beautifully, this airplane seems to scrunched up.
