Auto Credit Based on JABH's World War II Challenge (Closed)

Boeing had eclipsed other aviation manufacturers by introducing a host of aerodynamic and technical features into a commercial airliner. This advanced design, which was a progression from earlier Monomail (Models 200, 221, 221A) and B-9 bomber designs, combined speed and safety. The Boeing 247 was faster than the U.S. premier fighter aircraft of its day, the Boeing P-12, which was an open-cockpit biplane.[6] The low landing speed of 62 mph (100 km/h) precluded the need for flaps, and pilots learned that at speeds as low as 10 mph (16 km/h), the 247 could be taxied "tail high" for ease of ground handling.

    Here my opinion:

    • Design: 10/10 I love how you mixed a B-17 and a C-47! It is charming, including its details. It's a love!

    • Realism: 9/10: The pitch and roll agree with the shape of the plane and its mass if it were real. a cabin was missing.

    • Description: 8/10: It's long, it describes the plane, and I'm happy with that, but I think it could have been longer, or been more specific. I hope you didn't use Wikipedia, RIGHT? 😶

    • Maneuverability: 10/10 Good! The pitch and roll match the airplane and are smooth.

    • Performance: 10/10 Serves as military transport, supplies, etc. Good job! I congratulate you for this.
