That new Sci-Fi plane is just too cool :)

Postby Daube » Thu Jul 14, 2011 11:35 am

Hi all,

Just saw the newest SciFi plane posted at Simv library, and saw it had a VC, so I gave it a try. The plane is a beauty, and the VC is quite nice too, I have to say. Couldn't resist sharing some shots :)

Plane is freeware, still on SimV main page.
Scenery is freeware, Norway Scenery X.

I haven't tried to land on the water in fact :P
Landing at Vaernes airport was already challenging enough ;)
This is Norway once again, enriched by some freeware sceneries like Norway Scenery X and a mesh.

The plane flies like a normal jet, a bit more powerfull though. The physics in flight are quite pleasant, and the view offered by the VC at dawn or dusk is enjoyable as well.
Thanks for the comments :) I think I will add a virtual arrestor hook to it, so that I can land on carriers.

I wonder how long before we see something like this in our skies? It looks so plausible.... time to play 8-) 8-) 8-)

The SX-1A/B is pretty interesting too.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

I wondered why you hadn't posted some screens for those planes yet ;)
Also, I wasn't aware about this SX-1, it's a fun plane as well, and the VC modellisation is one of the most original I've seen so far, so thanks for the info ! :)

Your right it does look great although this bird tries to kill me while taxing it falls over, :-? on final it either stalls or make one mistake and you are dead. And i do mead DEAAAD ;D. Oh yeah and i love the vapor effects. But even if you are doing 700 in ground speed pull back to 9 g's enjoy the vapour for a few seconds and then sacrifice some small furry animals to get you out of that stall. that's why i love it!!! ;D
Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

Hi Daube
Tried to find that jet with no luck.  What is the name of it?  Does the designer have a URL?  Tell me more...
Very nice images by the way:)
