the chalenge is to build a plane from rostock or lautern form the sky crawlers.
it must be a succersor to this. all entrys that got accepted got an upvote from me. the rules are: no jet engines (its allowed to use the vtol engine but only when you reduce the power of the engine so much that the engine didnt power the plane or with other words is purely cosmetic) and no miniguns are allowed also forbidden is the use of any guided missile. mods that are allowed are: air refuel by wnp78, and for heavy weapons is the bofors 57mm mod by gestour and the smoke trails mod by nathanmikeska. the deadline is the first of february next yeahr (2018).
rewards: 9 upvotes for first place, 6 upvotes for second place and 3 for third.
sorry for my bad grammar im a bit dislexic. oh and by the way: i didnt want only sankas and skylys. more types makes the chalenge better and so i will accept entrys for the game too. when you couldnt download planes properly and couldnt enter this way ask me and i will give you plane the green light when it follows the rules.
the models in the background are the sanka mb by YAMATOBATTLESHIP2222
and the skyly j-2 by MisterMasada. even with the fact in mind that on one of the models is a minigun doesnt allow them.
the winners rancked after my onion:
1st place: Rostock Sanka mk.B by Nef680.
2cn place: The Sky Crawlers´ Skyly J2 by kyusha.
3rd place: Aircraft RHB2 - for Irobert55’s Challenge by Datom (in his case its also because its the first try on this plane on sp).

@JettStorm thanks. if you want to palce a plane the hurry but there is one point that only some people know: i am german so if youre lucky you can exploit timezones.
@Nef680 here is the challenge and the first guy who liked it has build a skyly that was so beautifull that i changed some of the rules only to fit it in.
@freedompilot98 yeah. Well, Np, because I have a LOT of games for Ps2, PSP and my tablet
@freedompilot98 Nice!
It’s kinda sad I can’t find it anywhere...
@freedompilot98 Then you played Ace Combat 4! Is it good?
@freedompilot98 nice you in this challenge too!
Btw, is there any airplane game that u haven’t played?
@freedompilot98 datom has startet to build rostocks heavy bomber. he is pretty far.
@freedompilot98 i am a nice guy. the only two rules that never get changed are the no jet engines beside the vtol and no miniguns.
@freedompilot98 its is small compared to other skyly j-2 on the site but its is more detailed than some bigger replicas i have changed the rules only to get this plane in the race (i allowed the use of the vtol engine for use as a cosmetic).
@freedompilot98 im not sure if he changed the range but i didnt see a big change to the beta that he sended to me. its handling is like i would expect it from the look (a bit slugish but under a good oilot it should be a big reason to train).
@freedompilot98 this is kyushas entry:https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/t71p7t/The-Sky-Crawlers-Skyly-J2
@freedompilot98 whe are all busy.
@freedompilot98 planes from the game are alowed too.
thx @freedompilot98 did you know the movie?
@stig27 when you use this as a base it will be a suiga from rostock. but the planes from the sky crawlers are all a maschup from diferent warbirds. the wing base of a someaka looks like the same part from a me 262 and when you look at rostocks heavy bomber you notice that the fuselage looks a bit like a flipped me 163 comet.
here is a lot of usable reference pics:http://skycrawlersinnocentaces.wikia.com/wiki/SUIGA
@Irobert55 I’m doing this plane.
@stig27 ok. the best way to distiguish the skyly from the suiga is the tailfin. so make this and ill say wich it is.
@Irobert55 ok I’m lost, I’ll publish the plane in private and you will tell me which one it is ok?
@stig27 yes. the suiga is only in the game and in the story of the game the suiga get fased out for the sanka because the suiga from rostock and lauterns skyly were similar looking and couldnt be indentified from underneath. and that is a big problem when you fight in a war to prewent bigger wars. and so the decision was made that rostock changed his fighters to canards.
@Irobert55 Has the suige got two counter rotating propellers?
@stig27 the most planes from the sky crawlers have two counter rotating propellers.
@Irobert55 I only know that it isn’t the first F4U.
@stig27 could be the first suige on the site.
@Irobert55 gave me some trouble on not diving to its death, but I think that I got it now.
@stig27 and at the same time the fastest way to say i know a bit of you languae but not enough to talk. by the way hows the plane for the challenge going?
