@Bradford go to my latest plane (a single engine high wing). Most of it has its drag disabled and has 0.5 mass, which gives more realistic specs. You can also take edited rotators (including hinges in wings that have their base mesh disabled).

Please try to make major changes to a plane before posting it. Simply painting an object a different color, or adding a few guns is not enough to consider it your own. In the future please credit the original maker, and try to post your own work.
@Bradford excellent choice. If you need a guide on custom control surfaces, just ask. Those are always a big plus. You may also edit mass and drag for realistic performance.
@JohnnyBoythePilot that sounds great. Sorry, I'm getting a bit annoyed by questions that are already answered in the challenge description. I'm starting to see them everywhere :)
@Chancey21 it's a commercial transport aircraft employed by charter airlines, air deliveries, skydiving schools, etc. It's not a personal pleasure/convenience plane. I did say that challenge doesn't accept every aircraft that qualifies as a GA in requirements, as that would include a number of C-130s, 737s, 707s,...
@PointlessWhyshouldi how heavy must your plane be for two engines not to be able to lift it off the ground? Planes that fit this challenge are mostly under 1000kg empty weight.
@Chancey21 challenge specifies up to 10 seats. Twin Otter seats 20. Challenge is focused on aircraft for personal transport. Something you'd use to fly yourself and your friends/family to another town or for recreational flying.
@Jacobdaniel if it's a twin seater plane for personal transport but capable of aerobatics, it's good. If it's one of those race planes or a military trainer, it's not.
@CRJ900Pilot Cessna 208 is a borderline example. The smaller version does fit, but the bigger one doesn't. If you have read the requirements, you'd have seen that maximum capacity allowed is ten seats, and no helicopters are allowed.
@switdog08 also, you may want to join some Discord servers. There is a good one you can access through my bio, Builders chat. You can talk directly to other users there, and learn new tricks.
@switdog08 you've been playing for tw years and still haven't read the rules? You don't ask for upvotes, you earn them. This challenge might be a good opportunity to catch some attention, as some users will be browsing successors to check the competition. To make your post a successor to the challenge (and thus an entry), download the challenge post, delete everything that is not a cockpit, and build from there.
@RamboJutter I have a perfect track record of fairly rating my challenges, and have hosted the best challenge in history of SP. You can trust this challenge to be decided shortly after the deadline.
@GeneralOliverVonBismarck getting help is perfectly fine. Rules even specify reward sharing for collaboration projects, so you can build it with a friend from start to finish.
@IliaPilot could you be more specific? I don't think there are any VTOL planes fitting the rules, but I might be wrong, and I myself have a concept for that in mind that could work.
@randomusername I have just cheched. It enters a spin at 58mph (93km/h) with flaps falfway down, full pitch up, trim halfway up. I can't do more thorough test rn.

@MakarnaliMussolini I know that. This vehicle has been sitting in my saves for a while and predates tracks mod by a few months. I didn't want to risk damaging it by replacing tracks.
@CustomAircraftMods if I get five comments asking for that, I will. You are the second :)
@Brields95 oh, Pipistrel is ultralight... well, a borderline example between light and ultralight :)
@Brields95 which one on that list is ultralight?

@ChiChiWerx indeed, I must do that.
@JohnnyBoythePilot can't wait to see it then.
@JohnnyBoythePilot that sounds great. Sorry, I'm getting a bit annoyed by questions that are already answered in the challenge description. I'm starting to see them everywhere :)
@BoganBoganTheMan smallest version does. Safe bet is a slightly smaller Beechcraft Queen Air.

@Notaleopard as long as they abide the rules, it's fine.
@Notaleopard eh? It's a build. Cars are also not aircraft, ships (of which I've made quite a few) aren't aircraft, and they are all "valid" builds.
@S4P9 how will you ever get good if you don't practice?
@RamboJutter you're not really good at math, are you? 172x2 is 344 XD
@Stingray interior is not necessary.
@Jacobdaniel if it's a twin seater plane for personal transport but capable of aerobatics, it's good. If it's one of those race planes or a military trainer, it's not.
Thanks for the entry.
@Jacobdaniel read requirements.
@Jacobdaniel I don't know why. It flies for everyone else.
@jamesPLANESii yay! :)

@RamboJutter results were made as a forum post. Three forum post actually. One for each category. And fourth announcing the overall winner.

@PlayingSimple thanks. I'm glad you like it. It's the simplest solution I could think of to hide the suspension.

Excellent work. Great details.
Very nice build. Lovely wing flex.
