I was assigned a project for my history class, i need to gather some information.
I need to know what you people think about this. I want help.
I need to collect 200 Aircraft for each of these topics.
Modern Jetliners
Classic Jetliners
WWII and Postwar Aircraft

I tried polling for this but it seemed to upset some people.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
P.S My dad doesnt like me to play FS during the school week. But since i need it for my History class I geuss thats going to change.
None of you are going to belive this (I've been playing FS since i was 4)

I can help you Military wise for Post-WW2 fighter, attack, bombers, and interceptors  ;D

What do you need? Just the names? A little about them? The more you tell us, the better we can help you  ;)

Well for Classic Jetliners you could list Boeing 707, 720, and 727. From Convair it would be the 880 and the 990. From DeHaviland it would be the Comet. From Douglas it would be the DC8, DC9, and DC10. From Russia you have the IL-62, Tu-124, TU-134, TU-144, TU-154, and Yak-40.

Does that help?

My daughter has been playing FS since before she was 2... daddy works the controls and she wiggles the stick. Favourite plane the Mig-29 Firefox (of Clint Eastwood fame) and so far no crashes in several hours of stick time!
These two links should give you a wealth of planes to browse from WWI through to the current day via WWII and the Cold War

If you're being serious I think that's a pretty tough assignment. I'm not sure there are 200 different modern or classic airliners, never mind jets. Not sure about the WWII/Postwar aircraft either.

I dunno, Boeing have tried with the 737-100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, BBJ etc etc!

Yeah, but they're all 737's. You've got to be really irritating to claim they're different aircraft.

I'm sure one or two people have tried!

Did you say 200?!

Hope that helped!

P.S. I'm not as up-to-speed on Boeing as I am on Airbus. Sorry!

Seeing as how your original post was back in January, I would assume that you turned in the project and got graded on it by now.  If so how did it turn out?
