I think it’s it the Planes if fame sir museum [F3F(https://images.app.goo.gl/o2Ycx7sX8myMwy8XA) @KnightOfRen
This has a 2 blade prop IRL. @CobraHueyIndustries
Some people modernize them. @CobraHueyIndustries
Yeah! I think they stopped making them a while ago, but they still produce them@KnightOfRen
Do they still make biplanes? @CobraHueyIndustries
Or overhead wings@KnightOfRen
Yeah, it was the style@KnightOfRen
Were biplanes mainly a 30s thing? @CobraHueyIndustries
From the late 30s@KnightOfRen
Definitely a classic styled biplane. @CobraHueyIndustries
I like the old Navy paint. Metallic, gray, yellow, blue, and red@KnightOfRen
Lol. I’ve done that before@KnightOfRen
It's a cool scheme! @CobraHueyIndustries
No. Sry I tagged myself! @CobraHueyIndustries
It’s ok! I love answering questions!@KnightOfRen
All of my planes use real paints schemes they have irl. This is the paint they were found in most@KnightOfRen
Sorry. @CobraHueyIndustries
Is this color scheme used IRL?@KnightOfRen
@KnightOfRen lol
Probably. More microfighters!! @Cobrahuey
@KnightOfRen it probably needed 3 more notches back
Just slightly. @Cobrahuey
Yeah! I should’ve made it longer @KnightOfRen
Looks pretty simple, But it's accurate! the real thing is pretty simple! @Cobrahuey
@Cobrahuey hahaha it happens
