CB-17 Triprop

20.5k LieutenantSOT  2.9 years ago
Auto Credit Based on Thecatbaron's Vintage Airliner Challenge [CLOSED]

Okay... so this is actually pretty realistic in terms of the design. I based it on a mash-up with the O-2 Super Skymaster and the CB-18 (designed by Burnelli as an experimental air transport)

It can carry 32 passengers (+2 external pilots, based this on the Burnelli experimental planes from 1920). Can cruise at 160 mph with a top speed of 206 mph

Controls:

  • VTOL Down= Flaps
  • Trim= Trim
  • Regular Flight Controls

How to Fly:

Start off by putting trim to the second notch down, and putting flaps all the way down. Accelerate and it takes off on it's own at 169 mph
Once in the air, retract gear, retract flaps, and put trim to the first notch down.

I hope y'all enjoy!!!

    @MrGreen as you press take screenshot on the 3rd photo, there is a split second where you can press it again and take another one. You could theoretically take 100 screenshots
