Auto Credit Based on weebabyseamus's DC-10
Edit: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/wN6iDh/KC-10?comment=293223#comment-293223 is a worthy successor making this plane obsolete by @Jshay
Finally we have a fully functional KC-10 built by both @Authros and I. He was the master behind the landing flaps which include leading edge flaps also. Flying check list: AG 1 half down= take off flaps and full down is landing flaps. AG 2 and down= air brakes. AG 3 and up/down= fuel arm(make sure its all the way up for take off). AG 4 and brake= reverse thrust. It rolls a tad to the left due to some crazy voodoo keeping it together, so if you find it, please let me know. Have fun flying this beast!

Yes I know it's old! Just never really got around to looking at your stuff until recently lol. Well done with the flaps. I have a gravitation towards flaps. @WeeBabySeamus
Why doesn't this work on my iPad when it only has 176 parts?
@KevinMurphy hey we need to talk ive been trying to make planes for new users and i finally got 2 ULTRILITE and ULTRILITE seaplane version no this is alot i know but do u mind adding then as one of the starter planes u get like the p51 heleska yours sincerly Theflyingauzzie
@Redstoneracer24 I heard you the first time and I'm afraid I'm gonna have to turn you down. The Takao remastered will be my last big project for awhile as I'm preparing for my Piano Exam later this month.
I would love to see a 737-700( or 800) with southwest paint scheme@DeezDucks
Hello, I have uploaded my modified version of your KC-10. here is the link https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/17RWzH/E-3-Sentry
I did all I can without the use of modding (I am still learning how tou use that). Sorry if it was not as close as the real one. Anyway, thanks for the awesome base airframe. Cheers! :)
I think the reason that it pulls to the side is that it's not centered. Check with the "mirror aircraft" tool. The plane (puns) appears slightly to the side of the centerline.
@KevinMurphy Yes I have tried it personally and it was AWESOME. Didn't think that someone actually can make a drag chute for the refuelling system. would be nice if it really works, I mean that we can refuel aircraft in mid air... hahaha I'll let you know when my E-3 is up. Thank you
Would love to see that! Jshay has also brought this build to the next level https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/wN6iDh/KC-10?comment=293223#comment-293223 @AJosh92FS
@KevinMurphy Maybe If I have some spare time I will make some modifications to your build. For some reasons I just love AWACS airplanes and I think your plane is very suitable to create one.
Awesome details
cool
this is why multyplayer has to exist so peolpe can refuel in the air
I believe this is the first successful tanker aircraft with a working boom on this website.
@AJosh92FS thank you for the awesome upvote and comment! Glad you enjoyed it.
Thank you for another awsome build
I upvoted this but in the words of Spock, 'It would be oddly self-serving'.
one of these brought down a Concord. a small part off the side of one of the engines fell of and popped a tire which caused a fire and it crashed shortly after takeoff.
Favorite in class by far! Great work guys!
Nice!
too cool
I've decided to to a boing 737 because it's seems like it's just the right size for a starter jumbo @KevinMurphy
I mean, you've pretty much mastered everything else. Your twin prop passenger planes are top notch. Also would love to see the evolution of landing flaps in different airliners. @Cedy117
Ok that would be fun to try something new for me @KevinMurphy
@KevinMurphy :D Thank you for you compliment! That's a yes right? xD
