Here it is, the B-17 as promised. This is a week in the making. A day to buld the plane and around six or seven days to make it look as accurate as possible. This is hardest plane I have ever had to recreate. It has some design aspects that were almost imposible to accomplish on iOS. Two engines are moded with double the hp and rpm, and two are stock. The plane is very heavy so the extra power is needed. Lastly enjoy the plane and an upvote wouldnt hurt too. :D I worked really hard on this.

How so? @ReischetzFokke
What about it? @ReischetzFokke
How? @ReischetzFokke
Great job for a mobile build, especially iOS. I wouldn't feel bad about modding the engines, as long as the end result looks right and flies right, what does it matter if you used infinite fuel and 50x-power engines?
The wing shape looks great. If you need any inspiration, you can check out my B-17, if you want to. Overall not bad for starters. My advice is to go back (when you want to) and add more detail, look up pictures, add antennas, rotation guns, etc... Detail is key in replicas.
Nice try, making a B-17 for starters~
Thank you. I also have a Mosquito. @SpartanAirplanes
I saw you had a Lancaster, too. You're building up a nice collection. @Air123
Thanks. I think I might make a fairchild @SpartanAirplanes
Beautiful plane! I look forward to seeing what you make next.
looking pretty good :)
Thanks @ACMECo1940
Cool design
