This is a WIP type thing, so I figured it merited a new thread. I felt sorry for my plane, not being able to land and all. So here we are.

More updates someday.

SCANLINES CANNOT HIDE THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE NO TEXTURES.

That is all. :em321:

That landing gear strut looks... flimsy. I guess I'm just more used to seeing carrier landing gear.

Sorry about the scan lines guys, but the image was sent by a spy deep in Soviet territory, and he couldn't get good pictures from the shadows where he was hidden!

I agree, it looks flimsy, particularily for forward gear. Basically the entire weight of the plane is coming down on that strut when it lands. On most of the gear I've seen there's generally another strut coming off at an angle to the back or the front creating a triangle (and often there are even more struts). This can also double as the actuator to retract the gear.

One of the funniest requirement I have seen for landing gear (and forward portions of the plane in general) is the "four pound bird" test. The structure of the plane must be able to withstand impact with a four pound bird at landing speeds. Four pounds may not seem like much, but when the plane is travelling 150 mph... Let me put it this way, has anyone seen that clip of the Randy Johnson fastball hitting the bird... multiple by 10.

Anyway, it still looks cool. I like the air speed sensor just port side of the cockpit. Nice detail.

Oh, is that what that is? :p

Anyway, the gear is flimsy because I've just started, and there's a ton of detail that has yet to be added.
