Making each wing out of 2-3 wing parts can help. Also, if you make basic fuselage wings you can connect the engines to the fuselage wings instead of directly to the wing parts.
You could use an expression like this:
Throttle * (clamp((Altitude / 5000), 0, 0.5) + 0.5)
It should start at 50% maximum power at sea level and increase until it hits 100% at 5000m.
Also you can check out the engines on this plane if you would like. I did something similar on the engines there.
Edit: upon looking at this again, the code actually makes the power reach 100% at 2500m. If you want a certain altitude just multiply it by 2
Oh. My. God. This makes the most beautiful engine sound I’ve ever heard in SimplePlanes. Not to mention the fact that the fan looks and spins amazingly as well. If you'd allow me to, I’d like to make a 100-200 part version and put it on a plane.

I got a bunch of issues with colors and variables when I tried to upload it as a successor myself.

Hi @KyonIndustries, I’ve made an entry for this challenge but I’m waiting for it to be made a successor. If the mods don’t get to it in time, will you accept a link to it?

+2Looks Great!
Playing SP is actually a decent way to pass time on a long flight
:0 Amazing
+1Yo, that’s kinda crazy
+1Cool! I don’t think I’ve seen an IA 36 Condor on the site before. It flies really well too.
Propfans, nice! Something seems to be stuck on the inboard flaps, but other than that this is a solid plane.
@CrazyEngine No worries, glad I was able to help

great build
+1I think you should finish the Tiger
I plan on making an entry to this challenge
those gauges be looking nice
+1Nice

+1The aircraft’s configuration is a bit unconventional, but I like it! Also there’s a nice detail on the wings and fuselage.
Congrats to all the other participants and thank you to @KyonIndustries for making this challenge!
+1Great job! It handles very well and looks great as well.
+1Also, how did you get the rudder to work so well?
Simply Amazing
@Amspro, That’ll be $19,999,999.99 please!
@XAircraftManufacturer, Thank you!
@Erc90F4RU Actually, since the plane came out in 2003, Terraria copied the plane and turned it into a flying sword… 😁

Hi @BaconAircraft, would you be able to make this post a successor to this challenge? https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/5LHgq3/Private-Jet-Challenge
Thanks, Tim

Nice! I love that the logo is made of fuselages!
Looks clean!
+1@LM0418 yes, it is the 717!
car go zzzZZOOOoooommm…

Looks Niiiicce!
+3A bit of xml would improve flight performance tho
tiny wings
+1@Sense2
Yeah, Asia Pacific isn’t nearly as well known as other cargo airlines, but I’m glad there still are people here that know of them!
@XAircraftManufacturer, @JJsimple, @Darkmoon
Thank you! I’m glad you liked this build.
Nice looking plane with great handling characteristics. Good job!
I love the custom fan blades!
It’s nice to see a livery that doesn’t rely on text boxes. Great job!
+1Awesome job!
+1Love the details!
Great job on the livery!
Is real flappy bird this hard?
The handling characteristics are a bit funky, but the plane itself looks great!
Nice livery!
I like how the doors cause drag in flight! lol…
The flaps are smooooooth! Also, nice details in the engines and gear.
+2Another nice plane
second one looks like a P-39 or smtg
Interesting thumbnail…
+1Looks awesome!
