Greetings!

Welcome to the SimplePlanes Weekly, where I show you all the news from this past week.

A day long remembered.

Any comments that are jokes or disgraceful statements about the 9/11 attacks will result in a immediate and permanent block.
In 2018, it feels like terrorist attacks take place every month. But none come close to the mark that September 11th’s events have had on the world. In fact, 9/11 is a date that can mean no other thing. Even if it’s your birthday, the attacks will pop up in your mind before that. No one thought anything would go on that day. It was a normal weekday. But by 11AM, there was no hope of a normal day. The story that sticks with me the most is the one that a friend of mine had. A lifetime New Yorker, he had a clear view of the towers when the events started to unfold. He heard the second plane zoom over his head. He smelled the dense smoke that settled on the city. And through his binoculars he saw what he thought were falling debris. They were people; jumping off the doomed building.

Never forget.

Say what? An update?

Well whaddayaknow? HellFireKoder updated the multiplayer mod. There’s nothing huge in the update; just small patches and tweaks. Nonetheless, it’s nice to know that Koder is still working on the mod despite his new responsibilities as a game developer.

Hi, Himynameiswalrus:

Himynameiswalrus is back after nearly a year of inactivity. Despite saying he was bored with SimplePlanes, he now has renewed interest in building and will upload his new creations whenever they come out. Welcome back Walrus!

SimpleRockets:

Ion engines were shown off last week and boy are they slow! But the good news is that even though you’ll be moving like a herd of turtles, your gas mileage is awesome.

Teasers and other posts:

Here are some notable promos/interesting forums from the past week:
Just a small reminder, by PhantomBladeCorp: It’s small but it’s important.

Oops I couldn’t find any other good posts. ¯\(?)

USER SHOUTOUT:

please don’t tag this user in the comments: that’s really tacky!

skullshredder

Although they’re somewhat mysterious, skullshredder has made some nice looking builds. I hope to see him really step up and make something awesome.

That’s all for this week’s news. Have a safe and enjoyable rest of your day/night.

    Ok that’s true but you featured the 200 upvote “highest education” so I thought maybe my highest rated and most successful project would be “mentionable” @Awsomur

    If you've already been featured, upvoted and spotlighted several times, there's no point in me mentioning you.

    We were watching a video about the plane that crash-landed in that field. The camera zoomed in on a vaguely plane-shaped burned spot in the ground, then this one kid said “Did anyone survive?” Everybody was like -_- at him and I explained that you can’t survive when a plane plows upside-down into the ground at 550 mph. It was kinda funny actually.
    please don’t block me for this ^^^^

    You see stuff like it in movies, but when you see the footage, knowing it’s real: it makes your heart sink.
