Really nice!  :thumbsup:

The world needs more three-engined whifs, though.  :cheers: Might be a cool idea to build another one like this, but keeping the original pusher prop as well.
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Captain Canada

Nice one. Looks rather heavy and slow tho..... :blink:

Don't let ageing get you down, it's too hard to get back up

Quote from: NARSES2 on July 10, 2015, 06:10:40 AMI once read that Ryan Air actually considered allowing standing ? Now I always thought that was a Red Top "silly season special" but have never seen anything definitive either way  :blink: Perhaps "our" man at the CAA knows ?

I think Aeroflot used to sell standing tickets, complete with hanging straps to hold on to. I've read of people standing through their flights before.

Found this brilliant SAR Samson SA-2 here : http://www.cbfsim.co.uk/cbfs_bb/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=20853&start=10

Looks like an update of Zenrat's 'Eye in the Sky'  :thumbsup:

One commenter doesn't seem to QUITE understand how helicopters work though.......
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Stumbled across this scaled-down, virtual Tu-22... Sweet - a shame that there's no 1:144 scale kit of it!


Captain Canada

That is pretty sweet....takes a second to figure it out !

Where's my beer ?

Tophe

I found a kind of TriAtlas there
http://www.haju68.comoj.com/D-AM.html

With no access to the rear door (impossible to open)? :-\ ;D
[the word "realistic" hurts my heart...]

NARSES2

Maybe the middle boom splits and lifts when the door is raised ? daft I know but I suppose the whole rear end could pivot to the left or right to allow access ?
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Captain Canada

That just weird, like the guy drawing it screwed up !  :thumbsup:

Thanks for your "approval" on the TriAtlas, both of you, and I imagined TriLightnings, so (while I prefer 2 booms at last) ;D

Captain Canada

Again it's the middle one ! Three engines ? Superb.

:bow:

yes, the middle one definitely deserves to be built : it seems doable !
