So he had a very supersonic prop with awful performance, and this had forced him to dramatically reduce the airframe drag in order to match the stated top speed; it was therefore basically impossible to get the thing to descend for landing!

wow, I'm surprised the thing gets airborne in the first stance! Does X-Plane model propeller cavitation too?
