Colombo Wide Body

[george kennie]

The plane looks really good to me. I like the force arrangement and moments(when
have you ever heard me say that about someone else's airplane design), but if
you believe the published weights, I have a great bridge in wonderful shape I'd
like to sell you,......cheap! If you build a 2 meter ship out of goose down
it'll weigh more than 7 pounds. It's never gonna happen!
