  • Today, Lowne Aerospace unveiled its aircraft that it will use to send tourists to the newly-announced Hotel and Casino resort on Minmus. After controversial claims that the aircraft and overall plan for the base was "dangerous, wildy stupid and completely unethical", CEO Matt Lowne dismissed the claims all "it's just banta fam". More from this story on page 7.

    In atmosphere a hypersonic body cannot have flat leading edges or else pockets of air will stagnate and heat up along the leading edge, causing damage as it super heats into a plasma if the speed is maintained.

      reminds me of my "flying pancake" series, a myriad of planes that used a giant delta wing design, the idea was very high lift and lots of intakes to air hog up in the upper atmosphere, back in the days of the simple lift physics they could fly for hours, now I don't think they can even get to upper atmo with the high drag to thrust ratio of current game

    I like this video. As to the problem you encountered when changing back to landing gear and how it caused the craft to pop up then back down where you planed to build the hotel and casino, you might want to consider two different departure / arrival configurations for your craft. The first would be horizontal where this is used for departure and arrival at your home base the planet from which you originally departed from. In this case you are using the wheels. The second configuration would be a vertical configuration for arrival and departure from the hotel and casino. In this case would not use the wheels to land the craft or take off. But rather the legs that hold the craft up when landing wheels are retracted. This alliveates the need for your wheels to be enguadged in the first place Moreover this might solve the potential of unintended damage to the craft as a result of enguadging the wheels. Just a thought.

    if your craft is bouncing then you need to up the dampers. the legs have springs and dampers (like car suspension) the springs will just keep going while the dampers will release the energy elsewhere.

    2) i forgot the intake so i was already buring up fuel quickly
    3) the cabin started humping the fuselage
    4) i fired up nuclear engine

    What about a modular boxwing style (with micro-station in orbit for swapping 'modes) with separate stages for atmospheric, LKO (low KERBIN orbit) and maybe inter-planetary, along with maybe re-kerbin entry?
    - Rapiers on the atmospheric
    - high delta burning for esaping LKO and and secondary ones for deaccel at desto, with ion for interplanetary
    - maybe an ablative re-entry 'layer' that docks on for easy reentry, even at high speed/bad angles.

    i tried a Boxwing Shuttle design once. it wasn't very stable, also i had no way of launching it. i tried launching it like a capsule, a space shuttle, strato launch and even a system that used boosters that could be jettisoned (sort of like an SSTO, but the engines that get it up to the upper atmosphere are ditched when the air gets to thin), it made a very effective cargo plane though.
