Well there's something you don't see everyday....................

Wonder what the aerodynamics of it would be like? Assuming modern fly by
wire etc.


You know to be more "Rutan-ish" you would need the main wings to have some
sweep to them. The engines would have to be mounted differently too.
Probably should Photoshop a set of wings from a TU-95 "Bear" into the place
of the straight main wing. Anybody got the time or patience????
