woah, awesome!

There's so much detail everywhere, well could I really expect anything
'non-detailed' from you? No way. :-D

It has a really cool shape to it, sorta reminds me of a soaring eagle, or a
hawk, and then at the last moment it dives at it's target, fires it's
missiles, and blows it's target clean out of the water. ;-)

OH! Oh my! look! look! look! it has four barrelled machine guns, mounted
under the wings! woohoo! Seriously, I *love* your four barrelled machine
guns, it's such a cool design, and you use them so well to boot. I envy you.

The tail is very clever, I really like the NOTAR idea, I didn't even know
such a thing existed. :-)

I really like the landing gear too, the fact that they fold in is cool
enough, but then you added hydraulic jacks to them! :-)

Where did you get all of those 1 x 1 dark grey cones? I don't even have one!
;-(

The colours are very cool too, neato desert camo,

The only thing I don't really like is the cockpit, it doesn't seem to fit in
with the rest of the colours too well, IMVHO, but then again, I have a bias
agains't that cockpit piece anyway, :-/

Great work Mladen, Egad, now I have to go build myself a helicopter! :-)

(you designs are WAY too inspiring) ;-)

C'ya!

Russian Hind D

NOTAR helicopters
AH-1 Cobra (sorta...)

The "Loiterer" utilizes [1] NOTAR technology, therefore it needs no tail rotor.
Also, it DOES have retractable landing gear. Just wanted to get those two
things staight... ;-)

Enjoy!

Mladen Pejic, over and out!
