Many thanks Tony....it was fun to build. I'd seen the LoM canopies used
inverted in a few other models and wanted to give it a whurl.  The only
downside is what you found...there is a lot of space above and behind the
pilot.  Not quite enough for another fig, but too much to just stick some
greebs in there.  I dunno...might try and raise the seat a few plates to
take up the space.

I was wondering if there were any orinthologists out there :) The tail is
indeed one of a swallow, but I didn't use it as a name for a variety of
esthetic reasons - just ain't cool soundin'.

Thanks for the comments and critiques!

Cheers,
-Gil

The only thing I would say about it is you can make it have one or two
passenger seats in that big area behind the pilot. The tail is cool an and
the vtol thrusers seem to have nice swoop to it. But isn't the the bird a
scissor-tailed fly catcher? That's a type of swallow.
