looks like suicide.

It flies very well. If you think that's suicide what about this? ;) http://members.lycos.nl/aviator/aviation/images/G-SHOG-12982-big.jpg

Mmm, very small, but for some reason I've always fancied flying one of them :)


There's a freeware FS9 model of it available... I think I got mine here. Very sporty, and the engines make an interesting sound when at idle- kind of like gargling after inhaling helium. ;D

I've not tried the FS version but it sounds very much like a large scale twin-engined model aircraft. Not surprising as that's basically what it is & it was designed by an aeromodeller. ;)

Don't know how accurate the fS model is, but it's got an impressive roll rate, climbs surprisingly well, glides pretty well also, but iit's a bit of a handful in slow flight.
But the visibility is superb, and itt can be flown upside-down... ;d
