Supermarine S.6b

2,411 icolubrids  8.0 years ago
Auto Credit Based on icolubrids's Supermarine S.6b

PLS READ EVERYTHING: Finnaly finnished! it has taken 3 months and hours of work, but it finnaly flys! This is a replica of the Supermarine S.6b, [I believe this is the only replica of it on SP] which won the schneider trophy, and starred in a movie. Only one of the two planes ever built survives, which i saw at the Solent Sky Museum [Southhampton, Hampshire] , which i recommend visting. I thought this amazing plane needed an SP replica so, here it is! NOTE: i had to make the speed unrealistic as it doesnt pitch under low speeds. If anyone can improve it, great!, but please save it as a succesor. PLS GIVE CREDIT if U use any parts of this THX. The red parts are for if you want to take off from a runway or if you want to start flying easier. Attach jets on wings for easy take off, wheels on pontoons for runway takeoff. eject them with ac1
