About 1-2 months ago, I started work on a project to make an example of what the "perfect" NMA might look like. With the Boeing 797 supposed to be launched within the next year, the A321LR dominating the market where the 757 once reigned king, and the B757 and B767 aircrafts getting older, the Middle-Market airliner is a hot topic in the airline industry.
I got to work, to design a plane that has all of the qualities of a good mid-range mid-sized airliner in my opinion. These traits are as follows:
-Ultra-efficient.
-Long range.
-Can hold a wide variety of PAX and cargo.
-Roomy interior (both cabin and cockpit).
-757 style performance.
-Fills in both the 757 and 767 markets with one aircraft family instead of two, increasing commonality and reducing staffing costs.
-High visibility in cockpit and passenger windows.
-Ultra agile/versatile.
-Looks cool.
This is probably my most legitimate project yet. The plane already flies beautifully, and every time I think of something reasonable I add it on. I have a team of beta testers flying the plane and giving me tips on what should be fixed.
Anyway, I ran out of ideas for this wall of text, here's the preview photos that is of the W.I.P. 0.9.1 beta.
A190-200 Sitting at the gate. Folding wings allow it to fit at the smallest of gates, despite its wingspan being wider than the 767-400s.
A190-200 lined up on the runway with its wings extended, ready to takeoff.
A190-200 raising it's gear for a flight to Maywar nonstop.
Tell me what you think in the comments. Would this make a good NMA?
Since everyone is asking me to tag them, ima steal James' idea.
Press "T" to be tagged in the final release.
@Gameboi14 I'd say by the end of this month I will be ready to roll out the -200
@ForeverPie let me know when this angel is ready for flying
@Marine Yes, we need a dev to get on it for 1.8
@ForeverPie that's what I want for the next update
Tag me please
@Marine Yeah. We need AG9 and AG0
@ForeverPie ah, now we need more AGs
And Marines lights are a frame rate killer @ForeverPie
@Marine I was seriously considering that actually, after seeing your 747 forum showcasing the dope night lighting. However, I decided that at this point attempting it would be unreasonable because of the changes that would have to be made, and some things being compromised. For example, I would have to put the strobe lights and the nav lights on the same activation group.
@Notaleopard please look my 777 or 747
Tag me
@Marine
How do you do that?
wing tips look a bit strange but if you tag me I'd be glad to help
I gots a idea
What if you put folding winglets,ON THE WINGLETS?
Good, but it needs a livery.
why don't you use beacon lights for the cabin windows?
Looks awesome! Great idea with the folding wings
@jamesPLANESii Maybeishly
Give it a livery
@ForeverPie thanks fam
@ThePilotDude @randomusername @DepressedTortoise Fixed screenshots
@Johndfg Done
