I'd like a civilian aerobatic aircraft made on the Sukhoi S-54/55 project, stripped down off all millitary hardware.



DIMENSIONS:
Wingspan 9.08 m (29 ft 9 1/2 in)
Length overall 12.30 m (40 ft 4 in)
Height overall 4.47 m (14 ft 8 in)


I think that little thing would be a damn hot ride. Twisted

"Never have I seen so beautiful an airplane. A rich, dappled blue, from a dark, threatening thunderstorm to a light sky blue. The cowling is a brilliant, gleaming yellow. Beautiful, and Death on the wing. A Focke-Wulf 190." -Robert Johnson-

You did say from "any time"........



K2

(Past that would be a Constellation if civilian, or B58 if Military)

That was some of the best flying I've seen yet! right up to the part where you got killed.

Low_Flyer_MkIX, do you have a threeview drawing of your beloved Whirlwind? It has given me an idea (no, I'm not going to make one...). A link or a PM would be most helpful.
