  • -[FINISHED!]- WORLD WAR 2 CHALLENGE! 9.2 years ago

    My build is gonna take a while, just started it, and only just finished the cockpit interior. It will be beautiful tho. Hawker tempest FTW @BaconAircrafts

  • I NEED YOUR PRAYERS 9.2 years ago

    Go do some research, get a geological hammer and any old chisel and also, a backpack and go look around a fossilforous site (IE lots of fossils) most of the time in England you find ammonites,gastropods, bivalves and brachiopods but occasionally if luck is on your side or you happen to brave a winter storm in the south of England's usualy pleasant coast, you can sometimes find ichthyosaurs bones, I personally have found a few vertebrae and a jaw bone, plesiosaurs (I've not been that lucky lol) and pterodactyl fossils, but they are very rare, I some places in Wales you can find trilobites, and on the isle of white actual dinosaurs are found... Unfortunately I have only found a small fragmental piece of what I think is a dinosaur rib. In the Triassic area of Devon and some of Somerset you can also find bones, but they rarely get washed from the very hard red sandstones they get trapped in. IMO the most exiting and interesting fossils are always fossil plants, and fossil fish. I have but found any 'nice' specimens of either, but I've found a scale and a ton of carbonised wood.

    I mean it's realy not that hard if I can do it lol ;) plus, MURICA has some nice fossil beds, aswell as gemstone beds, so if you can get out there and dig up all dem bonez and if you don't have time to get hammers and chisels a lot of fossils although sometimes broken, are on the ground! And in places like streams and parks! Although you shouldn't take fossils from parks... Unless you plan on spending the night in a police station explaining why you took a giant rock from the park and hit it with a hammer..., @KingDeadshot

  • -[FINISHED!]- WORLD WAR 2 CHALLENGE! 9.2 years ago

    That's a good idea that I was just going to ask about, but for exaust flame. @amazingperson124

  • I highly regret this... 9.2 years ago

    Lol that is how I felt when I started building the Dreadnaught

  • 2016 XVI Argentum folium II 9.2 years ago

    Not the first, not the last ;) @Rohan

  • 2016 XVI Argentum folium II 9.2 years ago

    It's Bally good i say! @MeetThyDoom

  • Look, jet stream is good idea but does not work for me. 9.2 years ago

    Ok I understand! @joeysellers

  • I NEED YOUR PRAYERS 9.2 years ago

    Ahh, fossil hunting is easy, you just have to know what you're looking for and wher to go to search for them. @KingDeadshot

  • Look, jet stream is good idea but does not work for me. 9.2 years ago

    I know -_- I wasn't born yesterday old chap. @EclipseRed

  • Tonka Truck - 1980's Bottom Dump 9.2 years ago

    If we still had old website instead of this excuse for an update, this would have got 40 upvotes by now. Since jet stream all my followers are ignoring my planes. Simply because they aren't notified when I build one. I was wondering what your opinion was on this new system.

  • Look, jet stream is good idea but does not work for me. 9.2 years ago

    @joeysellers or whatever your name is I beleive your in charge of the website.

  • I NEED YOUR PRAYERS 9.2 years ago

    Yes I am a fossil hunter aswell. I have many beautiful display pieces that I have hammered from the rock myself! @KingDeadshot

  • -[FINISHED!]- WORLD WAR 2 CHALLENGE! 9.2 years ago

    You should have a seperate class for jets I think

  • -[FINISHED!]- WORLD WAR 2 CHALLENGE! 9.2 years ago

    Might build a hawker tempest... Idk what else i could build... Possibly a vosper torpedo boat or a tank but meh...

  • -[FINISHED!]- WORLD WAR 2 CHALLENGE! 9.2 years ago

    Yalso I expect no bias towards certain countries designs.

  • -[FINISHED!]- WORLD WAR 2 CHALLENGE! 9.2 years ago

    Otherwise I'm in! And I expect a ww1 challenge as a follow up lol

  • -[FINISHED!]- WORLD WAR 2 CHALLENGE! 9.2 years ago

    Hmmm wondering if I should enter. Can iOS players have a bit of slack due to device constraints (XML not possible nudging not possible)

  • 1968 English Eletric Lightning F6 9.2 years ago

    Why Thankyou sir! If ever the empire needs an aircraft you know where to ask. @OldColonel

  • The apology post. 9.2 years ago

    Colonel and I are kind of settled.

  • Pre-1910 Anon plane 9.2 years ago

    Hmm @MeetThyDoom

  • Cessna-150 D 9.2 years ago

    I've found the worst MPG engine ever... Hint. It's on my Argentum Follium... It burns 100 gal in about 45 seconds lol hoping to get a Mach 2-3 capable stealth plane.

  • Cessna-150 D 9.2 years ago

    Can I have that link again? I didn't save them all as a few weren't useful at the time but now I'm realy itching for that 0 weight infinite fuel cell lol @Cedy117

  • Pre-1910 Anon plane 9.2 years ago

    What aboot the first tenks @MeetThyDoom

  • XVI Aqua Dromonem II 9.2 years ago

    Thank you sir! @OldColonel

  • New Website Features 9.2 years ago

    How about one spotlight per 24 hours.

  • Pre-1910 Anon plane 9.2 years ago

    Him currently listening to some truly emotional music... Listen to 'The Band Played Waltzing Matilda' it's rather sad.. But also makes you think that it's the best anti war song ever. @MeetThyDoom

  • Pre-1910 Anon plane 9.2 years ago

    Ahhhhh, what era do you prefer? For cars it's the 1930s&1960s but I like modern ones too, for planes well I like anything from 1903-2016! I love all tanks too lol, exept the ugly ones haha (looking towards the ministry of war and its head of AC1 Senitel production) @MeetThyDoom

  • New Website Features 9.2 years ago

    I had 78 notifications... The spotlight thing is too spammy, I suggest having different pages for different types of notifications, one for stuff that happens on your posts, one that has links to the planes of people you follow (I find the jet stream good but it does not show if there's a new plane there) one for forums, and one for things that happen on other people's posts, I think it would be a simple yet effective way of sorting through large numbers of notifications... @joeysellers

  • New Website Features 9.2 years ago

    I would much prefer the 'Everything' forum section to be at the top... Since I find it easier to trawl though.

  • Pre-1910 Anon plane 9.2 years ago

    Yeeeeeees expect a modern areoplane out soon, the empire shall yet again rule the seas if it actualy gets moving and builds my spiffing kite! @MeetThyDoom

  • I NEED YOUR PRAYERS 9.2 years ago

    Add some silica gel sachets, they are used for keeping water at bay, and drying the air in a sealed container. I use them to stop the corrosion of minerals and fossils in my collection.

  • Aviown-207/JM "GREEN HUNTER" 9.2 years ago

    Damn that's tough...Mig you were her in the UK you would still be able to do a university course at that age... Plus you would get benifits in order to feed your kids.. Although you could go into the model plane industry possibly. Or boats possibly.. And for a 90s design this is 'Noice' oh and I suggest growing some food too, that is what I would try to do if I found it hard to feed a family, then you will have extra food. @AviownCorp

  • Aviown-207/JM "GREEN HUNTER" 9.2 years ago

    Simple, but realistic. But, what you say is true, this plane has no future, by modern standards it's out of date by probably 10yrs.

    This is simply because of the shape, it's not that stealthy... But your other planes are quite up to date and sleek just by a quick scroll of your page. If you want planes that will have future, research the following.

    Thrust Vectoring
    Supermanouverability
    Deliberate instability
    Stealth technology in aircraft
    4+++,5th & 6th generation aircraft

    If what i beleive is true India (I beleive that's where you live due to IAF roundels) is currently developing a 5th generation fighter, and I am guessing in around 10'years they will be developing the 6th gen, I suggest you take a course in aeronautical engineering, I think you would be a good areodynamicist or whatever they're called,

    You would easily get a job for design.,

    Don't give up, keep trying and you will always succeed in your goals and dreams!

  • THE REALIZATION 9.2 years ago

    You don't need all that hell, I could build a plane out of some Timber, Canvas sails (yes for boats) hammers nails, some steel cable some bicycle parts a few rods of downing some glue, a bandsaw a cheap motorcycle engine and a tin of good British areo dope. @EternalDarkness

  • XVI Aqua Dromonem II 9.2 years ago

    Thanks! @VikDesigns

  • Big Bertha (Boom50s) v1.0 9.2 years ago

    Make a big Bertha replica

  • XVI Aqua Dromonem II 9.2 years ago

    @Jhondfg@HMicha4@ACMECo1940@General360@LouisEP@Razr@dzulfiktar@TrainDude@RedFox@Spikerya Thankyou guys!

  • What one lf my old XVI planes should I remake 9.2 years ago

    Do you think I should make the new Dromonem a single deck speed boat styled thing? It may look nice with the hull I have now @SpiritusRaptor

  • My condolences to Nice for its recent attacks 9.2 years ago

    That is the EU's fault, we give them money and they spend it on pointless things. No one helps poor Greece we would all be better if we distanced the EU. It's turning into an almost Nazi regime. @ForeverPie

  • My condolences to Nice for its recent attacks 9.2 years ago

    And that's one of the reasons why we are leaving the EU they open up their borders to all these middle eastern 'refugees' but in come ISIS terrorists instead they disperse them to EU counties then they forget about them untill they do something like this.... It's a silly system. And the U.K. Wants nothing to really do with it. @ForeverPie

  • A few ideas for the sites leaderboards 9.2 years ago

    Please take ypir disgusting colonel biased ranks of my post. Same with you @OldColonel @Djbanana

  • Moral Dilemma (Extremely Important) 9.2 years ago

    You do not understand our motives, we have been here for the majority of the games life, we shared a rating system that was often unfair and easily exploited in a bad way, ratings were not given out like chocolates on Halloween as they are now, that last bit is a reason why we feel the enjoyment has been slightly nerfed. To get a nice comment on one of my planes used to make my day, and a 5 star rating would mean everything to me, as the planes used to take sometimes days to build back then so it was entirely worth the time and effort to find out that other people liked your creation not just you liking your creation (we all love all our builds let's be honest) unfortunately lately Vik seems to have only gotten attention from his closest followers. His planes get dragged down into the depths of the hottest page because some platinum has made a low quality plane that takes 5 mins to build and gets 50 odd upvotes for it, if we are not rewarded for our time then what's the point in even uploading? This is the reason why very old plats and golds are leaving the game, not because they are being hated or annoyed, because they don't feel well.... Like they used to... One of a kind,., now any old person no matter how skillfull can.bodge together a piece of utter garbage in 5 mins call it a plane and get 50 upvotes for it,.. Rediculous, and that's why none of us back in the day liked the users 'SoundOfLight' and 'HomersDoghnut' all they built were trashy planes and they just got high ranks because they bargained with people to get rates..... If you knew you would understand. @AntiSphere

  • Moral Dilemma (Extremely Important) 9.2 years ago

    I was also talking to him about this, he was asking me to download his best creations as he was deleting his account, TBH I was honoured that he even mentioned the possibility of me re uploading them as a memorial of his skill in the future.... I hope he stays...

  • A few ideas for the sites leaderboards 9.2 years ago

    We are allready using minerals (bronze silver gold platinum) for ranks why not mixing things up and using 'rare' mineral names, @MasterMindIndustriesAndAviationCorporation

  • What Do you want to see next? Also is my current quality ok. 9.2 years ago

    Quality is good, I suggest no.3

  • A few ideas for the sites leaderboards 9.2 years ago

    Plus I am an amateur Geologist so what the hell Lol! @MasterMindIndustriesAndAviationCorporation

  • A few ideas for the sites leaderboards 9.2 years ago

    The issue of mobile users who work very hard but got left in the dust was brought to me by Vikdesigns.... Who is giving up hope and thinks he should leave as his planes aren't getting noticed anymore... @CaesiciusPlanes

  • A few ideas for the sites leaderboards 9.2 years ago

    Why Thankyou sir I do agree that some of this will have to be changed but I think it can work as for gem names well.... Hahah they will just be the colours of the gems in question, salt will be a salt shaker lying on its side tho hahah @MasterMindIndustriesAndAviationCorporation

  • A few ideas for the sites leaderboards 9.2 years ago

    @AndrewGarrison @Cedy117 @Skua @LatentImage @MediocrePlanes @Squirrel I think this may help some of the 'quitters' enjoy the game more and encourage people to be nice ecet if they could get awards for them (they would get points too)

  • 1937 Armstrong whitworth whitely 9.2 years ago

    I feel somewhat the same... If only us (old users) could go on strike in the forums without getting our arses kicked by the mods.. guess how long that bloody short Stirling took me to make! I've got an unlisted version of it and this plane, that are almost 7 months old now! Do not worry, I'm going to try and attract attention to high quality builds again (hopefully) with my new schedule... I'm going to make another Aqua Dromonem.... It may show the noob quality plats how real planes are built... Sorry pointless rant... I'm sorry but I can't be saying things like that anymore, the colonel made another one of his clone ALTS with the PlanesOfOld name on the everyplay site (that I've not used since he managed to bully me off it almost last year) it mad a statement that one could class as harassment towards zed/Ccooper.... Along the same lines as what I said above so... Yeah... If you need to talk about the whole thing to someone else (a mod) I reccoment Cedy he is IOS and builds fab planes hahah we kind of inspired each other :'). But still. This is a problem... @VikDesigns
