Note

Takeoff Speed:.......................................388km/h
Max speed (100%Throttle@12km):...1050km/h
Stall Speed (Full trim support):............230km/h

This project is quite complex to finalise as the livery keeps glitching out, and engine performance has to be tweaked so it can reach its max speed of 1009km/h, and yet be weak enough on ground to not accelerate like a mother hen whose chicks are threatened. This is achieved by utilising a funky trees formula listed: Throttle + ((Altitude/ 7000) * (Throttle)).
The 7000 Integer being the overall variable that dictates at what altitude (In metres) is when the Power of the engines double, In this case its 7000 metres above sea level. The lower the integer, the sooner it will double the thrust. A word of warning however for builders that may use this formula, your plane has to be then be as heavy as the real thing or more since then at high altitudes, it will be too powerful and pithcing up to 90° at 12km will not stall the aircraft, rather the thrust will be now exponential.

Speaking of Engine performance, the engine models in this project are some of my favourites as the actual interior now has to be modelled in, and boy did it work out so well too! Not only it has a proper model, but also a functional reversing animation, didn't even take that much parts as well too, about 26 parts.

Two of recent additions to the previous projects I have built such as: Emergency Slides, and ACAS are not present in this one, mainly because I am uncertain if the CV990A does have emergency slides, and ACAS, so I left it out.

This would have been a trio with other two aircrafts. You may have seen them in Multiplayer, they're even ready for livery application but unexpected circumstances made me rethink and delay their publication instead. To make way for potentially the most ambitious project I ever pursued in Simpleplanes apart for An225, 2707-100, and Tu-144.
