About Emergency Slides

I first started adding emergency slides on my aircraft starting with de Havilland D.H106 Comet 4B only if applicable, realistic, and on budget. This is achieved by using airbrakes scaled accordingly, you want it to be long and straight, so the length would be short, height will be about x30 than original, and width... Well whatever width the door is, and the smoothness is achieved by using a smooth function such as; smooth(Activate8, 0.0625)

About Cheapskate's Gear Tilt

I have made a gear tilt system that is very redundant, and extremely cheap (adds 0 parts, ZERO), basically I have offset the wheels four nudges down and four nudges up, giving an illusion of tilt, well it is tilted. Very proud of that, the fact it consumes no parts and yet adds a feature

About Cheapskate's Engine Chevron

I was very proud how I handled the chevrons bit, I actually got the idea from my botched detailed instruments. Instead of consuming 48 parts just for the chevrons, is now instead only using two parts. Really proud moment of mine.
You could achieve this by having two identical parts in the same place (Kinda like how you would accidentally mirror a part in the centerline), rotate the first part by about 7°, and adjust the diameter of the second part very meekly, about the range of 0.01 - 0.0625. until it looks like triangles

Note

Takeoff speed is around 240km/h, cruising speed @12km is maxed out at 900km/h, and stalling speed is around 144km/h with trim. Use both AG5 and Trim to easily level the aircraft. Only use 80% Throttle Setting! as the 100% setting is only used if one of the outboard engines are damaged.

Now its not the only reason why I built the 747-8i, it also acts as a testbed for 747-8F, and an engine testbed for 787-10. Oh and I refuse to cough up CAD$166 to Infinite Flight per year just for an updated model of the 747-8i, so I built it myself.

Not much changed since the 747-400 PAL project, with only notable difference being the length of flaps at full extend, -8i wingtips, and the application of GEnX engines. Although an ASBS must be applied to projects I publish after B747-400PAL project as I was notified by a user that one of the planes I built has been plagiarised, in a sense they bypassed the successor system. Yes , internet points are valueless, but the ethics behind their actions I cannot allow, plagiarism for me atleast is very unethical, and immoral as you display a talent and skill you cannot emulate, and discrediting the original publisher, may as well buy a KFC 6pc and sell them on in my breakfast place.
