Airplanes ( jets and props ) from early 1950 and late 1975 are allowed.The deadline will be the 12th of July.Feel free to use my DC-10 engine for your builds.

    The best way to do it, is to remove the ( default ) cockpit from your plane and drag the whole plane to the left upper corner of you screen ( where it says smth about assembly ). After that, you download my challenge and just drag your plane out of the list and re-install the cockpit. So, you are uploading my challenge- with your plane. @ThePropellerIsAFan

    Does it have to be a new aircraft or can I use one I made previously with some changes?

    Yeah np, but it must be a successor of this post, so other people can easily see the creations of their competitors. Btw, thank you for spotlighting this post and with it, inspiring more people ;)@asteroidbook345
