SSTOs (spaceplanes) are the final boss of KSP. Landing your first one will take at least 100 quick save/loads.
Edit: Planes are probably just as hard. I never flew regular planes because I skipped straight to spaceplanes.
I'll just keep researching KSPI nuclear engines until I can do propulsive SSTOs
You mean one that can fly in space too?
I prefer to keep ships specialized, so my SSTOs just get passengers and cargo to Kerbin's space station right above the atmosphere. Then another craft can take it from there.
I mean ones that don't rely on that "lift" nonsense and get to the orbital transfer station through good honest thrust to weight ratio over 1
In stock you can make a working SSTO with one RAPIER engine, a fuel tank, monoprop tank, some intakes and a rocket capsule. Last time I flew this configuration I would get to altitude with about 5% fuel remaining, do circularization, station rendezvous, and deorbiting with monoprop, and then land tail-down on that last sip of fuel.
