No need on naval variants as they pick up a wire with the arrestor hook or do a bolter instead. If you’ve missed all landing wires and try to TOGA it would somewhat hindered by a massive drag device trailing behind and would most likely lead to a loss of aircrew and airframe. Try lowering power on approach maybe? There is an air brake fitted and it will plop down on the Beasts off-set landing strip with the right approach speed and stop before the end of the deck (given the lack of landing wires I don’t think it’s too bad!) @Djorg708
Ahhh.... (wince) Yeah that was a consequence of it being overweight, I kinda compensated with more lift via wings being inserted. An oversight on my part, apologies. @Chancey21
Thanks again, your too kind! As regards to the footie, I might catch a game or two but it’s not my bag really. Overpaid drama queens who always injure that pesky shin pad..... I mean no disrespect to the millions of people who follow the sport, I just was brought up and played rugby. Union - the real form of rugby! ;) my better half might take exception to that comment if she read it. God I’m offending everyone today! Well the sun is shining, the beer is cold and I’m not at work, hope the beers are cold too across the pond and thanks again for you support! @ChiChiWerx
Reads just like a Clancy thriller - I almost thought I was reading ‘red storm rising’.....brilliant book. Tommy C. Gone too soon. Great build as always!
Thanks @TheRussiansAreComing it’s got slightly more speed than I planned from the result of a buried jet - so maybe a little unfair in a shooting match so to speak!
Thank you kindly sir! @GhostHTX I feel she was very much the workhorse in the early years of the First World War and a bit of an unsung hero. There’s a few things I’ve since noticed about this that makes me suck in air through my teeth like a builder about to give you a quote. I may remedy with a later version perhaps......one that got to dizzying speeds of up to 110mph!
Yeah I find the livery the hardest bit to get right and I do like the retro ones! I can recall when BA had individual tail art going on for a few years until they came out with their current one.
Check out eastern airways, I think they’re the biggest operators of the Jetstream these days. @MEERKAT978 and yes, BLASPHEMER!!! Now go sit in that wickerman over there.....
I did a vc7 a while back and that was nearly 400 parts so I had many in game crashes trying to tweak and add detail - in the end I just had to finish it and do no more! @ChristianFennell
I struggle making fixed wing craft fly.... concept seems to work though!
+1Part count :)
+1Really nice flier and love the quirkyness of it!
+1Very nice tiger stripes!
+1Amazing job with only 40 parts!
+1No problem, love you work! @MrKoT

+1Awesome! Do the “storm chaser” variant next!
+1I share your pain. Mine tops out at around 400. Large scale builds slow my pad down too! Brilliant stuff once more! @GhostHTX
+1Looks awesome! Shame I can’t fly it but oh boy, you’ve put a great deal of effort into it!
+1Really lovely job!
+1@EternalDarkness @Razor3278 and @VerySaltySniper thanks guys! You’ll be happy to know I’m not doing anything else by Sydney Camm for a while at least!
+1“STUKA!!...” lovely job!
+1I want this in WOW blitz. So badly.
+1What a stunning build!
+140 part brick, I’m impressed!
+1By all means! Yeah, she is a big mother! @Sgtk

+1This is pretty epic!!
+1The tank you will never get in WOT...... nicely replicated here!
+1Flies nicely!
+1Beautiful build here!
+1Most excellent! Bravo!
+1Can’t wait to take this for a spin later!
+1Splendid! Cockpit detail looks good and the pegs fold away neatly too! Jolly splendid old bean, jolly splendid indeed!
+1@BogdanX @Razor3278 and @Kerbango thanks for sharing your support and interest!
+1Thanks @TheRussiansAreComing it’s got slightly more speed than I planned from the result of a buried jet - so maybe a little unfair in a shooting match so to speak!
+1Looks and flies great! STOL ability is quit remarkable!
+1Really nice - smart build!
+1A neat concept that unfortunately never came about...
+1Hauntingly similar to Jutland ref the battlecruisers going up in smoke. I think you have the skills to do the mighty hood next! @Darjeelings183
+1Very neat!

+1Thank you @getorge and for spotlighting too, most kind! I see your platinum now congrats, most deserving!
+1Beautifully built, great bio on her too! Love your works, look forward to the next chapter!
+1Thanks @F104Deathtrap and @Kerbango most kind for spotlighting too!
+1Bloomin’ heck that was quite fast lads, thank you!
+1@SSSvaSSa
@BogdanX
Damn! You got some skills!!
+1This really aught to have been featured....
+1Many thanks! @FastDan

Thanks for your interest mate!
+1Cheers mucker! @MEERKAT978
+1No worries, looks cool and flies nicely too!@Razor3278
+1This is a rare beauty!
+1Thanks! @MEERKAT978 I know, some migs on this site that would dance all over this....
+1Reminds me of super smash bros on N64!
