I definitely like the landing gear. Simple to build, yet visually tasty. I
also like the taper along the aft section of the body. I haven't figured out
how to taper properly - yet. You and Rick seem to have a knack for pulling
that off.

on Saturday. So have a look:

It is powered by two large turbofans atop the fuselage, and has a single
internal fan that powers four thrust nozzles beneath.

The four landing gear allow for stable landings on almost any terrain.
The extra spacious cockpit can accomodate a pilot and passenger, plus a
small storage area behind the rear seat, or the entire area behind the
pilot may be converted for larger payloads or a rescue stretcher.

Enjoy!
