B-29 Superfortress

1,082 ThePlaneCreator  8.0 years ago

A beautiful aircraft designed during the final years of World War II. She was also the largest bomber during the war, and could also carry the heaviest bombload of any aircraft during her time. This one in Simpleplanes is a slightly scaled down version, but nonetheless still has the same look and feel as the real one. 1-2 = nav lights/ 3-4 = drop bombs. Yes, I know the windows are strange looking, but it was extremely difficult to get them correctly alligned using XML editing.
