Auto Credit Based on bskngshrk's R-98D 745MPH Interceptor
Pretty much the fastest an unmodded piston-driven craft can go. The final installment in my R-98 series can reach a top speed of 740 MPH at sea level, and easily surpasses 800 MPH in a dive. Please start the flight in the air, this incredibly complex piece of machinery doesn't have wheels. Enjoy, leave a comment, and happy flying :)

I read it somewhere on the forum @lowobservable
@bskngshrk where does it say that?
Huh, @bskngshrk
Wow that's crazy. Jundroo must've changed the physics model since then, because I just found out that the physics in SimplePlanes restricts all stock propeller-driven planes to about 745 MPH @Hadesrocks
I saw it a while ago, dont know where it is, saw it when i had like zero points @bskngshrk
Can you link it to me pls @Hadesrocks
Non mod, it had like, 1 min flight time, but still, mach 2 @bskngshrk
@bskngshrk its fine
@Himynameiswalrus didn't want to add a THIRD successor to your challenge, but I'd appreciate it if you'd check this one out
I bet I could make a Mach 2 prop with modded engines @Hadesrocks
non-mod?? @Hadesrocks
I have seen a mach 2 prop, no joke
Yeah there was quite a bit of design development to minimize drag, so that agility would be preserved @Natedog23
Thank you guys for flying my plane @Natedog23 @salisbey
I'm suprised you can still manoeuvre at Thais speed
Welcome @bskngshrk
Thank you @SPS13 for the upvote
