One must always love the Russian jet biplane cropduster! Rule especially enforced in Sovietland. Do not break said rule in Sovietland, or you will be flown to gulag in this plane.
In all seriousness though, great plane! Acts basically how it acted IRL.
@ACEPILOT109 X-29 = Su-47 / 2 + Thrust Vectoring Control. Such an underrated plane, the X-29 is. Hell, it made its own maneuver (Herbst maneuver, like a J-turn but in the air). And FSW aircraft always look better for that coolness factor. Too bad it’s very impractical for military and civilian uses.
@ACEPILOT109 Thanks so much! And honestly, that’s very true. I’m just having a blast meeting people on here, and so far so good! Anyways, thanks for stopping by! Always appreciate it.
Can confirm, 100% how I fly... and then I decide to pull a Cobra way too close to the ground and game over.
Also, gotta love that old-times orchestra music to make this sound super suspenseful!
Even if this is in SR2, I hope we get something like this in SP eventually, so that this doesn’t COMPLETELY die due to this. Although I understand since they are probably ridiculously busy.

Seriously, thank you guys! And thanks for the spotlights and upvotes! This means a lot from you guys, considering how far you’ve come.
Edit: Just now saw you guys have seen my other crafts. Still, thanks for the support!
It’s such a great feeling, isn’t it? I’m in CAP (somewhere in the Midwest, won’t say where) and went to Johnson Flight Academy, an activity we have over the summer. Absolute blast, and I just got my first solo there too!
@Awsomur I quite disagree, I’m having a blast reading all of these! And it’s amazing to see how much has changed since the beginning (y’know, since my account is (at this time) 3.8 years old.) It’s amazing to see how active this community is all the time, and I’m glad for that! Even if my builds don’t even hold anything to these masterpieces online, I know that someone who’s brand new looks up to posts like these and can be inspired, and learn from these talented builders/creators/writers.
.
TL;DR SimplePlanes is awesome and I love this community.
I’m so sorry to hear about that... that is terrible news... I lost my grandmother to cancer, and that was a trying time for my whole family. I hope that you can make it past this hard stage in life, and know that us on the forum are always here to offer prayers.
@DJS8Corporations Thanks for the kind words and optimism! I’m glad you enjoy her. You make some pretty sweet aircraft as well, so I wish you the best!
+1Absolutely amazing story.
+1@BlackhattAircraft Thanks!
@FreeRangedLemon @BlackhattAircraft @Sm10684 IMAGES NOW AVAILABLE POST PRESS RELEASE, FIRST IMAGES OF NEW FIGHTER UNVEILED
@BlackhattAircraft Sweet.
@belugasub @BlackhattAircraft kind of like Count’s aircraft?
Ok. Thanks. @F104Deathtrap
What about us users on iOS? I’m still not sure how to do it since I HAVE pics but not uploaded or in acceptable formats.
+1I’d say go for it! I’m sure it’ll be good!
Even though I said this, good luck all!
@FreeRangedLemon Ok, sweet.
@FreeRangedLemon oh? How do you do it then? I might add a picture to this.
@BlackhattAircraft Thanks!
As a Wrangler driver, YES.
+2@Sm10684 Nice build! I’m not that experienced with car builds, so I’m sad to say no to that. And thanks for the help!
Very informative, especially for this engineer wannabe. I knew about most of these cases, but it’s always good to get more information on this.
@Sm10684 <<Glad to see someone’s excited.>>
I think I’m 962. Woo!
+3Sehr gut.
Looks cool so far!
*Questions you intently *
I can help if need be, or if no one else wants to help.
@Noname918181 That’d be pretty funny. Or an alternative: Southrop Grummboy?
+1I’m in the competition too, so if you do join, I wish you best of luck!

+7Too bad a Schweizer can’t do that.

Holy cow... I’m still a bit confused, but this is groundbreaking for designs!

@Awsomur no problem! Keep up the good work, dude!
I am a simple Belkan. I see Belka, I upvote.
+6I’d like to add my name to the list. (Please)

@Awsomur Sweet! Gonna binge this now.
How does this not have more upvotes? This is amazing! Especially since it’s great craft for how low part it is!
HYPE
Just discovered this, loving every second.
Dang... that’s some professional level engineering work.
Welcome back!
+2Very nice build.
+1When the double hull isn’t enough.
... Apparently I cannot count, or read. Whoops! Still best of luck all! @FranzPeterSiegfried
Well boys, today is the day... I wish all entrants best of luck in the competition!

@joshcook2273 Thanks! Yours are pretty good too, considering you’re brand new.
@USA1783 Yep, nice flag!
