Hey Boeing! You should resume production of the 747!
Even though all the airlines have retired their 747 fleets and there is minimal interest in brand new 747s from cargo airlines, and the fact that you did this only 10 years ago with the 747-8 and was not very successful, and the fact that the 747 design originates from the 1960s and is kinda obsolete now, and the fact that the 747 can only operate on very long runways usually seen at hub airports, even though passengers these days generally want to fly from destination to destination with minimal aircraft transfers, and the fact that two other aircraft from your line up - the 777 and 787 - are happily filling the hole the 747 used to fill, and are much better at it, I am a 14 year old person who wants you so waste billions of dollars of development cost just to satisfy our very small community of aviation enthusiasts. :)
@Bobyo Why did you use 3 propellers with 2 blades instead if 1 propeller with 6 blades
Apologies, I just recounted and there's 4 props... but why...
Actually I jave no idea what's going on with the props wtf I just counted 5 now
@Bobyo No they don't! Where did you get that from? That doesn't even make sense! If they all spun the same way, why not just use 1 prop with more blades? Way simpler, cheaper, and easier to maintain. Anyway they're called "contra-rotating props" because they spin in opposite directions, both contradicting eathother's effects, canceling out the prop torque and P-factor effects to make really high horsepower aircraft more flyable. They're also more efficient. The only reason we don't see them used often is because they're significantly more complex and heavier than normal propellers.

But hah, I see the floating plane now lol
@VenusLancer @X99STRIKER You don't need to do that. You just need to take a pic of your craft, and open the blueprints function, set a view and open a pic and scale it, then go and upload your craft while still in that view
I usually have 2 or 3 projects at a time. Usually a replica plane, a fictional plane, and a super detailed car project. I usually build the fictional planes when I'm burnt out, build the car when I'm into mechanics and minor details and not so much planes, and build the replica plane when I'm full of inspiration. And I usually have a long break inbetween. Like for the past, I haven't been playing playing SimplePlanes at all and have played other games.
This is a really cool seat BTW!
If I save this as a sub assembly, it will be my 64815th "seat".
+1yes
+1amogus
+1The car is called ⛔

By that it means all the planes on the site are free to download.
+2I wish you could save forum posts to view later, like this one
+5@Awsomur Thanks!
Wow I remember when you were like 6 months or something lol
Okay, just found out that this is infact incorrect. The AN-225 has not yet been destroyed.
But if it does... Russia. I'm going to f^^^ you over.
Russia has gone one step too far. I will now join the war effort against Russia because of this
+3Wow I haven't seen wheels propelled like this since like 6 years ago!
nobody looks at this post :/
+8It blends in with regular forum posts too much
What happened to the flap handle and the side?
Maek rounds move then 💯
+2@MrShenanigans2020 but it has a 2 in it :(
@MrShenanigans2020 But that is over 1000 years away! Who knows if society is even gonna be around by then!
Dunno why this isn't curated, but currently I can't curate this so I will send this to the others and it should be curated
Hopefully Ukrane won't die :(
+8T
Bro I post once every few months and I get no complaints. 5 days is nothing
+5Hold on, I thought the ★ text charicter used to work with labels... idk.
Would be nice if it did, it's very versitile :)
Ahh nice. This one seems a bit higher resolution than the one I found, you can see the hinges and trheir direction a little better. Thanks!
I still have basically no idea how variables work :p
+1The Pajero you accidentally uploaded... damn that's looking insane so far!
The wheels be like... rain but it's gloss paint that fell
+5Looks pretty awesome otherwise!
@Mlancer 👍

Ice pilots 👌👌👌

But wouldn't having an odd number of counter rotating props completely defeat the point of counter rotating props?
+1@DrewPWinner Make sure the pic is a .jpg or a mango, and make sure you've set the right camera view and you're in orthographic mode
Wow. Not being able to run SP is ultimate potato level bad PC

How is that first picture a different shape?

Don't worry about it
+2@TheGliderGuy I was, but I only made like the base airframe and then stopped
@PlaneFlightX How do I make it clickable?
e
@Mlancer OOH PLZ SHOW ME
+1Do they show where the hinges are?
@PostalDude correct
Hipity Hopity get off my property
+3I feel like the only person who doesn't get this lol
+8I even read the Know your Meme thingy on this
What is this machine supposed to be?
Try
+3sum(input * speed), likesum(Throttle * 2)Yeah that sounds like a ban
There isn't a way unless you make your own funky trees autopilot :/
+1Yeah I wish it didn't do that
These new tyres are awesome
+2Are those headlights final?
Bit late to the party lol
