P-16 Gliding Wing

Description
This plane is an original design by me, meaning it is fictional. The P-16 is a civil gliding wing which takes off with a towing cable fixed to the ground. The pilot's view is quite poor as good visibility from the cockpit is not as important in a glider as good aerodynamics.
In the cockpit view you will see a small part a bit off to the right. This part will help you checking if you successfully disconnected the towing cable.

Important: For takeoff you'll have to press the acceleration button listed below. The towing cable will disconnect when pitched up/down.

This aircraft is based on aircrafts like the Horten H.XVII and other Horten gliders.It's an interesting concept using a flying wing hull as a glider.

If you like wing body aircraft then look up the horten H.XVII or the horten 229. try too build one of these next :-)

this is great! it would be cool to have a small pusher prop or a tug plane for added flight time:steamhappy:

Thank you! I might build a passenger plane in the future but I can't promise it will be the boing 757.
