I think we should allow it, forcing people to make something from scratch is what is slowing the AMR down significantly.
It is a decent learning curve to make something from scratch.
A lot of us started out by modifying existing templates as well
Just saying
Well if you're going to modify a template, don't just make 2 changes and call it a new plane. Modify it.

I made many changes to the templates, but some of them are less apparent than others.

You're gonna have a bad time going through reentry with windows that big.

I guess I spent too much time researching the heat shield itself to notice that ... fortunately it's a relatively easy fix!

WHY COVID-19 WHYYYYY
That look really close to the A330neo. Like too close.
YAMATOOOOOOOOOO!
Interesting fact, those thicc guns were only used once, to sink a transport and a destroyer. Waste of metal.
That look really close to the A330neo. Like too close.
But not close enough for Airbus to sue. Especially with that B777-300ER engines and A350 cockpit or Il-96 tails. Or the DHC-6 cargo doors.
Taking a break.
Fisher Aircraft is a relatively new entrant to the American aviation industry, based in Hartford, Connecticut near industry giants Pratt & Whitney and United Technologies (UTC). Its main base of operations located at Bradley International Airport (BDL) in Windsor Locks, CT.
Fisher began in 1986 in Windsor Locks as an FBO for Bradley under the name of "Fisher Flight Support," servicing corporate jets and charter flights which operated from the airport. In 1991, a small maintenance base was added for Learjets and Challenger business jets in partnership with Bombardier, which had acquired Learjet the year prior. In 1994, Fisher upgraded to become a Bombardier service center with full maintenance and repair services, leading to the renaming to "Fisher Aircraft Services & Maintenance." Over the coming years, Fisher expanded maintenance operations to include aircraft engines and avionics.
In 2008, Fisher made its leap into aviation manufacturing, purchasing the bankrupt very-light-jet manufacturer Echelon Aerospace from New Haven, CT (HVN) and transferring their operations 50 miles north to Bradley. As a result, the Echelon 100 jet was renamed to the Fisher Ultimate 100 and Fisher was renamed again to "Fisher Aircraft Manufacturing," which ultimately led to the termination of maintenance services with Bombardier. Most recently, Fisher focused on upgrading, upselling, and enhancing the Ultimate 100, with modest deliveries beginning in 2011 and onwards after the effects of the Recession fell off. As of 2014, the Fisher Ultimate 200, a re-engined and upgraded version of the Ultimate 100, is offered for sale.
Today, however, a brand-new factory for a new aircraft line is being constructed at Bradley, at 650,000 square feet. An additional facility for aircraft production in Massachusetts, Connecticut, or New York is currently being studied. Fisher plans to release a new 80-100 seat regional jet concept, dubbed the "Regional Jet of the Future," shortly. Specifications, however, are unknown at this time.

Lemica Aviation has officially cancelled the LM-1000 program due to structural reasons.
Also Lemica did more simulations and has indeed confirmed the fuselage will strike the runway on takeoff.
The cost to redesign the landing gear is not worth it.
New planes will be introduced down the line though.
Lemica Aviation announces the LM-1000.
The LM-1000 is a stretched version of the LM-900, the LM-1000 can carry 610 passengers in a single class configuration.
Specs soon !

Make it a twin-engined (shorter) double deck.
I don't think tailstrike issues will come up if you keep your design within an 80-meter box (80m length, 80m wingspan).

Maybe that is an option, however big planes don't sell well .
btw should we start another discord channel as the previous one suddenly got deleted ?

Hmm. It's the same passenger capacity, just a different configuration. I guess yes, big planes don't sell well but as far as AMR is concerned, it's fun to make designs anyway. 
And yes please. Make a new discord channel.
