NOTE FROM THE DESIGNER
This is a simple profile model of the Sonic Cruiser concept Boeing developed back in 2000-2002. It's built entirely of BlueCore foam and is powered by two GWS IPS motors mounted pusher-style on the back of the nacelles. Control is provided by ailerons on the aft wing and a full-flying canard. Despite its racy appearance, this model is actually quite docile and easy flying. And due to the very light wing loading, it can easily fly in a baseball diamond-sized field. This model has special appeal to me because I spent three years of my career as a design engineer on the Sonic Cruiser program.
