My really bad plan: I have created a cargo aircraft packed FULL of liquid fuel with 9 turbojet engines, my X-1 orbital craft will be attached to the top of this cargo craft by a decoupler, after it reaches a certain altitude I will detach the X-1 and attempt to guide into orbit

I believe that has been done before in real life...

Yes but KSP doesn't seem to allow for it as well as real life. I have no idea how to get the cargo plane to keep flying afterwards and my current prototypes have thrust issues.

there's no way this will go wrong.

Seems like everything is symmetrical. Post results of the mission when available, please.

AAR: launch proceded as expected, host aircraft approached supersonic speeds before primary RATO booster ran out of oxidizer, control released to parasite craft, which was decoupled at 2km in the air. Upon decoupling parasite craft immediately fell backwards and ripped off host aircraft's vertical stabilizer, destroying both immediately.
I attempted to remove folders in a directory that were root-owned due to container shenanigans. 

I left out the "~"  in "sudo rm -R ~/*". 

FUCK EVERYTHING.

Why not try an angled takeoff with the main plane, and once you near the atmosphere have the second one decouple and push itself into space vertically?

The host plane has a lot of issues with climbing because it's carrying itself and another plane that messes with it's aerodynamics, right now I'm just trying to get the parasite to decouple properly

Alright. While we're speaking of parasite vehicles, I saw a guy on robocraft who had a tank that had a car with a motor cycle that turned into a airplane in it.

It's a cluster fuck, remember this paradox, this is very important, more fuel=more weight, more weight=need more engine, more engine=need more fuel, and the cycle repeats.

This holds less true in modern aircraft where aerodynamics are substantially less important to keeping a plane in the sky, each engine is able to support a percentage of it's own weight that well exceeds 100%, as a result it requires a substantial amount of deadweight or fuel to counteract the benefits of simply adding more engines.

So I have a working system again... nothing could be saved from the original. My home directory was lost before I could stop the command. Time to start over. Again.

I predict that Dave is the puppet master behind all of this. Talk, damn you!
