Blackburn no.1 monoplane

43.9k PlanesOfOld  9.5 years ago
Auto Credit Based on PlanesOfOld's A.V.ROE No.1 triplane

Ok whilst my iPads getting fixed I'm making a set of the first planes made by famous manufacturers this one is obviously Blackburn

IT WAS EXTREMELY HARD TO MAKE
Only one photograph of the original survives and it's in terrible quality with stains and it's black an white and there's a big blob on the tail section so I may not have gotten it right

EASY TO FLY
Unlike the AVRO it's pretty easy to fly

LOVELY FOV
In cockpit you can see almost all around without any vision blocks

LIGHTWEIGHT
It can pull off primitive areobatics
(Don't do loops or rolls and stay under 500ft)

FUN AND SIMPLE
will run on a phone and is quite fast for an oldie

ENJOY :)
