Hi Guys,

If you remember my original thinking behind the Volts Fighter design, it was to create a Voltsjager, or pseudo German fighter plane, which about 1/3 of the way through the design took a sideways path and ended up as the Volts Fighter.

I had not forgotten my original concept and knew that it would not take much work to turn one into the other.

Attached are pictures of the two versions for comparison. There are a few more details that I might apply to the Voltsjager to make it more Teutonic in appearance - more rounded wing tips, re-shaped tail feathers, etc.

Basically, the differences between the two are costmetic rather than structural. The wing is still the same, as is the fuselage. So is the frontal fuselage decking, only the rear turtle deck and canopy have had a complete make over.

The question is have I succeded in getting a "Two for One" - what do you think?

Regards,

Dave
