Flight Log - 2016-08-27 - Rick Barnes's Cygnus

This is a unique design, aimed at being a futuristic/sci-fi type spaceliner.  It basically came about by combining 2 BT-60 sized V-2 boat tails, and a BT-50 Honest John cone.  The wing shape and name "Cygnus" came from the resulting long "neck" with bulbous head, which reminded me a swan.  The model has been built and flown, but isn't yet painted.
