TL5+1 Whittly-Douglas M217P (armed) [Crimson Skies] Whittly & Douglas M217p prototype transport Whittly & Douglas, following the limited success of their Raven, have tried to break into the under-supplied civilian light transport market. This is their first attempt; while the performance is all that might be hoped for, with a range of over 1800 nautical miles, the expense of the advanced materials needed to realise that performance is excessive. This prototype, registered as IS78522x, was sold to a breaker in Chicago in an attempt to recoup costs when the project was shut down. This version has been modified with concealed armament. Crew: 2 total. 2 crew stations covering vehicle maneuvering system, 2 communicators, 2 navigation aids. Subassemblies: Vehicle +5, Body +4, Wheels +2, 2xWings +4, Engine pod [2xWings] +2.
