So just for fun, I was messing around in my flight sim today, at my "home base" at Charlotte airport, trying to create an A320 that could take off vertically by crossing it (via config editing) with a Harrier model. It looked like it almost worked from the start - I just needed to add a little more power and control surface authority to make the A320 controllable in vertical flight. All I wanted to do was to take off and land at the gate.
Nobody told me that that Harrier apparently contained a nuclear rocket and a pack of rabid weasels that could break the laws of physics...
This was the result. I laughed and I hope you will too!
