I don't know much about aircraft engineering, but the Dominie strikes
me as a wonderful example of engineering compromise:
streamlined, but biplane for lift and stability,
two engines for safety
fixed landing gear for simplicity, but cowling for streamline
looks roomy and good visibility for passengers

and the beauty of the warthog

Bob
