Aerobatic Airplane Challenge

Deadline December 31st, 2022

(Please built ONE airplane, you don't need to built a group airplanes)

Many air forces, some navies, and even a few private organizations have established air display teams to perform in domestic and international air shows. Some display teams perform aerobatics, while others give displays of formation flying or their operations, such as air-sea rescue.

The following is the list of Aerobatic Teams worldwide. This includes the aircraft used by the teams. Aircraft used in Aerobatic Teams usually fly nicely, and they mostly got exciting colors / interesting aircraft livery. So why take a challenge on this topic?

    @F82Mustang Ouch! it was not a successor and so I did not see it while judging. Sorry for that. But next time when you enter a challenge, be sure your plane is a successor. For this time, I will give you 3 upvotes as a welcome gift

    @WinsWings wait only under 99 parts? Aww I tried making realistic looking wings which cost a lot of parts. Maybe I’ll try simple.

    @WinsWings ok, due to not having much experience in creating new planes it will be very simple
