Verill TAC 400/civ

Description

The Verill TAC 400 is a beast of the skies. The largest transatmospheric cargo plane available on the market, this monstrosity is the mainstay trading and transport platform for all of the powerful colonial corporations. It is however highly impopular with flight crews, especially pilots, who dislike it for its absolutely terrible handling qualities and poor flight smoothness. Indeed, the large cargo bay and FTL drive of the TAC 400 have left it with a high wing loading, so that the four massive engines do most of the work keeping the ship flying.

The /civ variant is the civilian version of the TAC 400. The /mil variants are painted dark grey and are used in heavy lift support and assault wings.

Ant i would 100% understand the pilots, this ting would bi a nightmare to fly especially if the cargo bay is filled to maximum capacity because then you would have the center of mass way below the center of lift creating a stable flight, but near impossible to pitch up ant down. Ant the other way around if the passenger compartments are filled ant the cargo not she would bi top heavy. I seriously would
Not bi surprised if this ting would have balast tank at the bottom, like a ship to effect the center of mass
