Birthday Build - Hurricane Hunter

12.4k DeltaLinkAviation  4 months ago

Greetings, today I've come with some news.

Why I've been Inactive:

A couple weeks ago I started working on a new project, a birthday build. It was supposed to be finished and uploaded for today, my birthday, but due to the recent power outage and other issues caused by hurricane Beryl that swept through the Caribbean, I wasn't able to complete it.

While some areas in the country have already repaired damaged infrastructure, the public service team in my area has not yet made an effort to do the same here. Hence my current situation.


The Inspiration for this Project:

I was born during a hurricane - Emily, late one night while she passed over the country, as I was told.

A few weeks ago after hearing the announcement that a hurricane would be passing through the Caribbean, I did some research and found that planes known as hurricane hunters were used to monitor relevant information about hurricanes, this inspired me to try my hand at building one in SP.

After asking around, I eventually settled on the designation and name "TR-3 Thunder Hunter".
I still plan on finishing and uploading this project once I'm able to. If you'd like to be tagged when I do eventually finish it, let me know in the comments.

This will be my last post for the time being, until then, thanks to everyone who sent me birthday wishes.

    @52REX Yeah, things have been returning to normal now, thankfully. A couple areas are still recovering but otherwise all is well.

    Oh man, I was oblivious to the news about this hurricane, by the tone of this post I can tell things are fine now so I thank God for that.
