A.54 Skycity (Remodel)

4,052 fleia262  3.3 years ago

So many parts... almost too many... like, suspiciously too many lol

A top-to-bottom rebuild of my Skycity. Much bigger and faster, demonstrating realistic proportions. She is still in the works, this is 3 days of progress and for sure more fine-tuning and stabilizing will happen later. That cockpit-looking thing higher up on the nose would be a lounge / restaurant for first-class passengers.

She will eventually be fitted to handle water take-offs and landings (those rings in the fuselage are meant to be fittings for air-tight, independent compartments, and why she has so many doors)

AG 1 - Turbine fan start-up
AG 2 - Thrust ignition
AG 3 - Runway taxi lights
AG 4 - Anti-collision navigation lights
AG 5 - Take-off lights
AG 6 - N/A
AG 7 - Airbrakes

Please note she's still a work-in-progress

For take-off, begin rotating close to 300mph with the trim only, full pitch stability needs work but the trim is more than sufficient.

I haven't even attempted a landing approach with her so...

    Quick question. How many seats in a row could the A.54 Skycity here fit in the thickest part of its fuselage compared to the A.50 Beast which could fit 12 seats in a row on the main deck?

    @Boeing777x I think a 4 deck is definitely doable... a 4 decker would most definitely be city in a sky, maybe ill make her a flying boat, cuz Wright Airport is running out of room for these big birds lol

    @fleia262 The pleasure's all mine, buddy. And I think it looks good as it is. But is it remotely possible to do a 4 deck plane in the future or is this the biggest one you could build?

    @Boeing777x Thank you! I'm kinda proud of this one so far... I was thinking of adding cabin seating... but id rather stay below 2000 parts 😂

    Woah! Now THAT is an absolute unit of a plane if I've seen one! I already love it! And I'm also looking forward to seeing the finished product being complete!
