    @Neenyboy I'd also recommend picking apart one of your favorite airplanes from other people. Practice with some of the methods they use.

    @Neenyboy Overload is the must-have mod for making cool airplanes. Fine tuner is also great, but not as important with the new transform tool.

    Hey Nice plane, but it seems to have an under-powered engine :(
    Good work though!

    @BrianAircraftsNew I almost always discover the defects in the plane after they've been on the website.

    @BrianAircraftsNew Would you rather have the previous version of this plane where the gauges were broken?
