@Sm10684 in my opinion, the name’s probably stuck, since it’s still catchy unlike “SimpleRockets2”
And the game is still “simple”, in that beginners who have absolutely no idea how to build planes can do so here. Flying is also a lot easier; you don’t see pilots in real life using a touchscreen or WASD keys to fly their planes
@Bobyo the story behind this plane reminds me a lot of the MiG-25:
- It was the fastest fighter jet ever made at the time, able to intercept just about any bomber
- The West was terrified of it
- One MiG-25 pilot wanted to defect from the Soviet Union and decided to offer his plane to the United States in order to be granted asylum there, knowing that the US desperately wanted any information on the aircraft.
- Therefore, during a group exercise over the east side of Russia, the pilot reported “engine issues” and diverted his MiG to an airbase in Japan, where it crash-landed but suffered minor damage
- When the US inspected the MiG-25, they found that the plane lacked maneuverability and was extremely heavy. Furthermore, its engines could not sustain its reported speed of Mach 3.1, reducing the plane’s practical cruise speed to Mach 2.8. And with the US stopping production on their supersonic bomber, the XB-70, the MiG-25’s role was pretty much obsolete
@ColonelCanada your post seems to be working; even though the "I'm leaving" posts continue to be made, they no longer appear on the "Hottest Posts" page
You should place this plane and my DC-10 side-by-side and take a photo, it's just satisfying to see 2 planes with the exact same livery together

@TheSonOfThunder sorry i'm late
- Originality: 10/10 (concept was almost never heard of, and only 1 other of this plane exists on the site)
- Looks: 14/15 (smooth, with fuselage parts. Accuracy is obviously perfect. And I like how you put all the labels on the plane, even though you didn't need to; it shows how you strive for maximum accuracy)
- Performance: 13/15 (no problems with the flying, except that the flaps cause the plane to crash)
- Features: 5/5 (the wings fold, and it has armament)
- Overall: 42/45 (we have a potential winner!)
Forgot to mention, with a walker you can also walk on ships and inside airliners; it would be really interesting

+1Also I didn’t mention it at the time, but this is very likely the first MD-80 made in 1.11 and the only good one since realSavageMan’s one
+1That… was quick
+1Oh wow… if you didn’t tell me the Comet was stolen, I would have never guessed it
+1I would say that it’s the most normal helicopter in Ohio, but I think that joke’s dead now

+1Nice!
+1I’ll join this, will try to save Mchangia
+1Also @BeeEngineer you should style the war updates like a newspaper, just a suggestion
I was wondering if it was a problem with my computer
+1Also I’m now realising how I might have started a turbo lines livery trend
+1After so many years, Dornier finally got its VTOL transport

@TheTomatoLover i think there’s a mod for that

+1@DatRoadTrainGuy19 it has been removed by the us government
+1I like Yakult but my parents make me drink Vitagen instead

+1@Dragoranos Wikipedia lists these as examples of “Wunderwaffe” machines though
+1@DatRoadTrainGuy19 i remember you made a forum post about that
+1LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG
+1Your house now has a truly unblocked view
+1I mean replicas always get more upvotes than fictional planes because they’re more well-known and hence “relatable” @Hiimakeplanes

+1(i follow you already so i don't need to be tagged)
@WinsWings yeah I saw that happen
+1Approved
the challenge is technically over, but I haven’t released results so I’ll accept and grade this now
+1@aurelienBTC3937 oh i missed that, gonna add another 2 points
+1Very epic
