3. No jet engines, you can only use the prop t1000 or the t2000 no turbo props.

    I’m very sorry I didn’t announce this sooner, if you are following me you’ll notice that I’ve been very quiet, but anyway this was was a hard contest, the fighter section was quite a battle against the NADF Valkyrie (1916 Southern War livery), Blackburn Badger F.1 Ww1 challenge and the Caproni CR.3 Corvo (Ww1 challenge) what I noticed is that both of @GhostHTX ‘s planes had severe pitch, which Brought it behind manuvabilty, but due to the fact that it was mainly good looks I was judging the Blackburn Badger F.1 had an upper hand thanks to its amazing cockpit detail and wing shape, second was the Caproni CR.3 Corvo and third was the NADF Valkyrie. This has been a close contest, and the bombers were born rivals but the Armoured Grendell bomber pulled away with a slightly more accurate appearance, all the same the Italian WWI Bomber was a clever build! Again thanks to everyone who participated, we can’t do these competitions if you don’t participate, this has been a joy to judge, and I look forward to seeing what else you come up with

    I wasnt implying anything here - It was more of a general comment. There have been a few never ending challenges lately. @Boundslayer

    Especially when a lot of guys start challenges then never come back with a result. @Kerbango
