GPM-38 Tayon Trimotor

17.4k Geekpride  8.0 years ago
Auto Credit Based on MediciAviation243's Care Package Challenge

Use activation group 1 to drop the package.

This plane was created for a challenge to drop a care package. The rugged landing gear and STOL capabilities allow the Tayon to be taken and operated wherever it is needed - a proper airfield isn't necessary. It's not the fastest plane, but is easy to fly and won't wear the pilot out on the journey. The extended cockpit allows additional people to be carried to operate the cargo drop mechanism or to take doctors where they are needed.

    I was able to fly from the Wright Isles to the USS Beast and drop the package onto the deck without needing trim and only using 3% of the fuel onboard, nice job!
