Maryland is weird tho, because even tho it's not that big, if you say "I'm from MD" it can mean a lot of things. Like the difference between the DC suburbs or the eastern shore or southern MD or Hagerstown/Pennsatucky or that crazy panhandle bit everyone forgets about or Baltimore. The cultural differences get a bit crazy for such a small state.
Hey, hey, I know that plane! She's a lot prettier with that dark paint, but I should point out that the one I uploaded her with was the exact shade of blue-gray the navy used during the battle of Midway.
Any trouble with her? Anything you wish I'd done a bit better? I'm glad you like her, I think I spent more time on that Dauntless than anything else.
@Mustang51 Thanks! Yeah, I really do love 50's and 60's jets but I seem to have more luck with older planes. I think it has to do with how people used to design them based off of "look and feel" rather than a solid understanding of fluid dynamics.
@ThePilotDude Yeah, I hadn't considered that. Apparently foxes are a big deal in France, I used the name "venard" in a game once and got bombarded with a lot of conversations in a language I cant read.
@BogdanX Thank you for checking this thing out. Good find! I thought they just built it w/out flaps, like a Catalina or something. As for trailing edges, I will dissect a few of your planes, is there anybody else who makes great wings that I should look into?
I'd you already released one "stub" version w/ the original radial. Pick one of the two "long nose" versions and move on to a new plane. But that's just my opinion, they're all very graceful designs and you've clearly got a lot of talent.
@Phoza Thanks!
Well, hello Mr. Fancypants! Very nice work!
@ThePilotDude Did all of those before posting. Check the upload, it's bizarre
Thanks! @KidKromosone
@CRJ900Pilot @JamesPlanesii HALLLLP!
Okay, here it is
@chancey21 I'll check it out.
@Datom Thats the tie-breaker. Thanks
@Frogulaone Glad you liked it and good job
@laSoul Click me at your peril
@TheWhistlingDeath Will do!
@jamesPLANESii Seriously, this thing is beautiful. Excellent job
Not bad. But she cant hold a candle to my beloved Jenny. XD
@LusKa Yes, link
@laSoul Why?
Nice build. I especially like the fuselage.
@Rhombus Likewise!
It is fitting that you rebuilt it for the Martin version, and the camo looks great. I am in envy of your skills.
@Rhombus My wife's from Towson, not a bad place to live. I'm north of DC.
@jamesPLANESii Link me when it's done, she looks likeca dream

@GINGER01 Part count is 459

Oh you cheeky little... That's a very nice trainer aircraft you seem to have developed during the delayed deadline of a certain competition. XD
Maryland is best, way cooler than Virginia.
Now how am I supposed to run that on my TI-82 graphing calculator?!

WTH? TIED 5 to 5?!?!
@ThePilotDude Yeah, I hadn't considered that. Apparently foxes are a big deal in France, I used the name "venard" in a game once and got bombarded with a lot of conversations in a language I cant read.
@ThePilotDude Yes, luck, chance and fate all mean the same thing in English
Nothing quite like the roar of a Pratt&Whitney Double-Wasp!
@ThePilotDude It's just weird, the whole thing started out overwhelmingly one way, and now it's reversed.
@RaZoRgAmInGxD Working on a low part count version, yes.
@Dllama4 I was considering a PO-2, but then I discovered half a dozen excellent examples already on here.
Thanks for the spot @SGTK
@ThePilotDude I wonder if this is some sort of time zone thing.
@MrSilverWolf Eff yeah! Except later. XD
@KSPFSXandSP Thanks! My next project tells a very similar story, I think you'll dig it.
@KSPFSXandSP Yeah, Anglophilia has won the day by a wide margin.
@MisterT Thanks man! Lemme know if there's anything you want to see improved in my next plane.
@BogdanX Thank you for checking this thing out. Good find! I thought they just built it w/out flaps, like a Catalina or something. As for trailing edges, I will dissect a few of your planes, is there anybody else who makes great wings that I should look into?
@Gestour Yup, 1920-1939. Why?
@Bogdanx Thoughts? Criticism?
I'd you already released one "stub" version w/ the original radial. Pick one of the two "long nose" versions and move on to a new plane. But that's just my opinion, they're all very graceful designs and you've clearly got a lot of talent.
I'm sure crew familiarity and parts supply also plays into it.
You're getting my upvote because that is a really clever screenshot.
You should def get a solid state drive, much faster, much more reliable, and they are finally affordable.
@zealt Yup, but even a fly has six legs. A good example to use would be heavy lift choppers like the Mi-26 or the Super Stallion
@Type2volkswagen Its a hell of a find. You ever check out ConceptShips blog?
@zealt Be sure to spend some time on landing gear, bigger ships means tougher gear.
