Here's an idea that just popped in my head. If you're reading it - it means I didn't chicken out before tapping SUBMIT...

It seems to me there's no limit to the profiles we could make - why limit them to just planes? We already are perceived by the masses as outlaw-idiots anyway. Why not push the envelope a little further? As long as it flies right - what about a fish profile? ... or a classic car - maybe a cadillac? ...or a reclining nude?

The first profile I ever saw (in the modern sense) was a Jumbo Jet from Australia. Never saw it fly, but it looked cool...

I had thought about doing one that looked like a Kenworth truck with trailer, and I designed one that my wife said looked like trout.....

How about a profile shaped like that stainless steel girl you see on the long haul trucks?

Her feet could be the rudder. Her head could be where the motor goes. The "chest"........ well that could be the handle?? :rockoncool: oops, I meant canopy.

Wondering how I'm gonna get THAT profile past my wife? :shock:

This would work great, first use a Taco or Mojo, (the tapered wing will make things look better),
I started to draw up a ME109 (MEfun09) not sure what I did with the drawings, the p-51 that GP makes would be so much sweeter if it was a MOJO under the hood! 8)
We have the tehnology we could make this happen

BTW I think I have plans for the Jumbo

That is backwards for sure, the tail is the tail, no getting away from that, The "chest" (tits) would make a fine vertical stab, and a place to put the hinges.
