Boeing P-26 Peashooter

3,802 PuhBuhGuh  9.2 years ago

The Boeing P-26 Peashooter was the first American all-metal production fighter aircraft and the first pursuit monoplane used by the United States Army Air Corps.[N 1] Designed and built by Boeing; the prototype first flew in 1932, and the type was still in use with the U.S. Army Air Corps as late as 1941 in the Philippines. There are only two surviving Peashooters, but there are three reproductions on exhibit with two more under construction.As for this, it goes a bit fast f for realism, but for some reason any slower will make it spin and go nuts when you try to turn. If y'all like it, please give me suggestions on new planes to build or ways to improve recent builds

    And after a bit of testing, I found it more fun to fly as well as more stable with the overpowered part.

    @karlosdarkness thanks! What don't you like about the wings? I have a feeling it's the wing poking out the back...

    having made a P26 within the past few days I have to say I love the way you have done the landing gear, the wings perhaps a little less so but it's good but way overpowered.
