McDonnell Douglas DC-10

1,816 Theman19  8.3 years ago

Finally I'm finished building this DC-10. I wanna thank everyone who helped me out on this. I probably wouldn't be done with this right now if it wasn't for them

About the plane:

This plane will fly up to 630 mph but averages around 570 mph. When you take off, the plane will want to go to the left, just yaw right and take off as soon as possible. It will then want to lean to the left, DONT FRET!! Just keep leveling it out till you're at about 550 mph. By then, it will be level.

Activation Groups:

-AG 1: parachutes (you WILL need them when landing
-AG 2: Landing Lights
-AG 3:
-AG 4:
-AG 5:
-AG 6:
-AG 7:
-AG 8: Night lights

This took me about a day to build so I would appreciate an upvote. Hope u enjoy!

    Haha @ALLSTAR7 I wish I was, I really wish I had like 80k points but I have 1k and that literally just happened last week after this upload! Lol, but seriously, just wait till maybe Sunday when I upload my Air Force One! That will be legendary! But I still doubt it would even get me to where you are

    Thanks @Robattitude it's my first airliner though so it's not the best when it comes to flying or landing, my Boeing 727-200 is way better, and I'm working on an Air Force One right now!

    Nice place, realistic!
    Hard to land, you need speed ;)
    Well I lost one engine during landing, and thanks to the parachute I didn't loose the two others!

    Thanks @chichiwerx I appreciate the help you've given me on this. It took me awhile after the final exterior udjustments to make it handle well, it has some minor flaws but other than those, it's by far the best aircraft I've built on sp so far!
