He-280

4,808 MaxB17  5.8 years ago

Hey, after nearly 4h of work, I can finally present you my newest project. It is a german Heinkel ( He ) -280 that has been developped and build in the second world war. I saw this plane on an old photo and decided to build it for Simple Planes users. This plane is a bit heavy too but it has a working, retractable gear. I hope you enjoy it ( if yes, please leave a like or comment thx. ).Have fun and good flight!

Funfact: The He-280 was the first plane in the world to have an ejection seat!
And btw: can I reach 1000 points with this plane?
