Alpine Ranger AR-1B
The fictional Alpine Ranger AR-1B features advanced cockpit layouts, and advanced 1923 airframe works. The AR-1B has a more powerful engine than the 1A, and added a hind gear for taxiing. The performances are the same as the 1A.
The Alpine Ranger AR-1B is a Canadian built triplane developed in 1918 and entered production in 1923. The Canadian plane was used to survey land formations, and intercept any airborne threats. The 1B and 1A was solely used by the RCAF, and later, in the 2010's was restored to flying condition, and was shown at many airshows across Canada and the USA. As more triplanes become useless, the RCAF retired them in 1932, and favored the new AR-2 instead. It was more nimble and agile, but it was a bit slower. The AR-2 was the successor of the AR-1B. When WW2 started, AR designed and developed the new AR-3 - Military Cargo and civilian transport aircraft. Then AR found that the AR-3 had braking problems and recalled all AR-3s and updated the brakes, and it is back in service with the RCAF, USAF, RAAF, and the RAF. As the era of non-biplane aircraft became popular, AR studied and designed a new aircraft - the AR-4. What is the AR-4? How does it look like? What does it do? Stay tuned, and tomorrow, you will see the most wonderful aircraft you'll ever see...

@ccooper ok, thank you!
@ccooper btw, are you one of my followers? ;)
@ccooper try using fuselage parts to act as a support for the wings.
@ccooper thanks!
@Supercraft888 No problem! BTW, awesome plane you made (the variant of this.)
Aww thank! @ShatteredAviation
@Supercraft888 sure, why not? Your a good friend :)
Hey do u mind if I create a variant of your ar-1b? @ShatteredAviation
It's a monoplane! @ShatteredAviation
It's a monoplane! @ShatteredAviation
@Supercraft888 oh, ok! guess what the ar-4 is! clue: ww2 fighter
Yup, small town big population, you would probably drive right past it and not even know it. It's mostly farm land and small strip malls
@Supercraft888 Markham is just north or east of Toronto right?
I know I searched them up and nothing came up so I knew they were fictional, it's just makes me happy some people recognize the Canadians as plane creators too! I live in a small town called Markham @ShatteredAviation
@Supercraft888 I am a Canadian too! Just to tell ya, these are fictional planes, there is no AR-1 in real life. I made them up to be a Canadian one because I think Canada should be recognized by their awesome planes like the CRJ700 and the Dash-8 Q400. Where do u live in Canada? I live in Toronto.
As a Canadian I instantly like this plane @ShatteredAviation
@Supercraft888 thank you so much :) guess what the ar-4 is!
Awesome plane man @ShatteredAviation
