Josh/David:
It would be pretty awesome to see you guys build bombers. My thought was a ridiculously large bomber based on the B-36 Peacemaker that uses foam board and several techniques used on other swappables. It would be awesome to see a bombing run challenge utilizing your creation. I have no doubt you guys can pull it off, but I would want the build to use the following requirements:
1. Foam board construction
2. Ability to remove and fit wings into a car trunk for transport (Multiple sections?)
3. Ability to separate fuselage for transport
4. Wingspan something like 96"-120"+
5. Working bomb bay and doors
6. Use of power pods a bonus, especially with 6 motors
I think this would be a neat scratch build challenge that would bring in new or more advanced build techniques along with pushing the limits of foam board construction that we all love. For inspiration, use this post by brettp2004.

Are you up to the challenge?
