wishful thinking.. but that's what i would do..

Yeah... Hopefully something useful comes out of this.

I'm okay with not having the sheer audacity of aero the IX has from Voltex, but I'd like an affordable wing, some skirts, maybe a hood and decent canards. Not over-priced dress-up items like they've put out recently.
