Want to get a small spaceplane into orbit and make the most of the airbreathing mode of the new RAPIER engine? Well it can be tough to get it right, but fortunately for you, your Uncle Bob is here to hold your hand and show you how a pocket-sized spaceplane can get to orbit and back with a fully fueled weight of only 7 tons. I do use landing gear from the Firespitter mod because of the weight of the stock aircraft wheels, but if you want to go all-stock you can replace them with rover wheels just as well (though not as aesthetically.) Remember though if you use rover wheels, they blow out at 60 m/s.
