This is my vision of future airliners. A weird wing shape and a spezial engine its all you need. In reallity this would be an electric powered plane. It can be used as a commerciall airliner or as a privat jet. It reaches speeds up to 550 mph. Use VTOL up for reverse trust and VTOL down for flaps. Other controlls just like normal. Hope you enjoy :)

@ChiyomiAnzai let her think what she wants to think she's taking this game way to serious... youre right
No prob @niggelas100
@PlaneCreator1 thanks and good luck with your plane
Nice creation I’m a Fanatic of Future Airplane Models , that Future model plane of yours that you created would be Amazing if that comes to life , I enjoyed it taking a test flight in simple planes and that plane fly’s smoothly . And Also I have the exactly same vision of yours of your creation too , I was planning to making one like that one of your creation but different but I did not have time to make that similar creation of yours .
@randomusername slaps table
“Lunar power”
There you go, I solved it
@randomusername yes i think the fusion reactors are the only way to stop the climate change and our energy problems
@randomusername yea ok i will take it like this so what is in your opinion the best electric propulsion in sp? But in reality electricity isnt infinite because if it would than the World would be saved haha
@randomusername the mars rover uses solar panels to charge his batterys over day and uses the batterys to get over the night. My plane has no solar panels so it needs to be on the ground to be charged. Because electricity is not infinite.
@DerekSP thanks so much
@DPSAircraft Can't watch it now, am on data, but I think I've seen it. The guy simply takes an existing airframe and assumes fuel weight is turned into battery weight, right?
@DPSAircraft
This. I see a lot of armchair engineers doing this. A true electric aircraft would have to be designed around being electric. It would probably be slower and cruise much lower, but the benefits greatly outweigh that.
A more fair test would be putting electric engines on something like the ATR-42/72 and maybe extending their wings. Or gliders; the are the perfect platform for testing electric engines without any modification
Congrats @niggelas100 for winning and for platinum!
@randomusername and yea dont be so lifted of because your a "builder" ore an "engineer" this is just a game better help others then saying "you couldnt do it...
@randomusername yea your right but you cant make a real electric plane in this game because there are no electric engines. If you make your own engine with pistons or whatever it is also not electric because its unlimited and thats not the way it works because batterys are not unlimited and every electric car has a screen to show how much "fuel" the battery has. so i think this is closer to electric engine than your piston powered planes. But for you because you put so much effort in writing this comment i will change the describtion a Bit :)
Very nice :D
btw I remember that aircraft with engines in the tail were very vulnerable to lightning strikes
Noice
@RamboJutter yea thats right haha
@niggelas100 no problem, looks like you put some effort into it :)
@RamboJutter thanks for the Spotlight
@Bradford no Problem
Thanks for the help! I'll make sure to incorporate this into my projects! @niggelas100
Good to see you back! @niggelas100
@Tang0five thanks
I wasn't playing for a longer time now im back
Really neat design, why are you still gold?!!
@niggelas100 no problem ;)
