F6F Hellcat

109k WalrusAircraft  9.7 years ago

Praised for its skill at dog fighting, the powerful F6F hellcat was one of the few fighters developed after the outbreak of World War II to succeed in that conflict. This remarkable aircraft could sustain enormous damage in combat and still bring pilots home. Powered by Double Wasp engines, the Hellcat had a top speed of 380 mph and a ceiling of 37,500 feet.

To fly: throttle and use activation group 1 for landing gear operation. Gear is operated by throttle. Use activation 2 for drop tank.

    @WalrusAircraft I'm going to try the F4F Wildcat and it's landing gear. I'd like to use your prop for it. Do you mind?

    @Shmexysmpilot - Do you have the game in PC version? If so you can hack the XML file which is located at: C:\Users\[your name]\AppData\LocalLow\Jundroo\SimplePlanes\AircraftDesigns Feel free to save my props as a sub assembly.

    Did you mod the nose cones to have smaller width and height like that or is there some kind of glitch that I can do?
