Hello everybody here's my last post before school starts for me, so if i suddenly disappear from the site for some time then it was school making me really busy.
anyway this is my first conversion aircraft and surprisingly it went really smooth considering the structural complexity of the basis

-What is this?
As i already said this is a passenger conversion of a bomber i already built called the M.B. 1. it isn't the exact same in terms of characteristics since it can fly faster (850 km/h or 526 mph) it has smaller range (consuming 1/2% of its fuel between bandit and yeager airport and it got bigger in order to carry 68 passengers and 4 crew members

-Controls
As always all the controls are in the ingame description
but here's the usual quick list:

AG1: engine startup
AG2: backup power
AG3: doors
AG8: de/activate trim
VTOL up: flaps
Trim: Trim

for today's story we need to fly to "Terras" a socialist nation north of the "United states of Erth" (both fictional nations i created btw) know for being extremely frendly towards the U.S.E (short for United States of Erth).
both nations have been great allies for most of their history mostly beacuse of their common enemy being the "Titanians" that in their early history menaced the very existence of both nations.
We jump toward the last couple of years of the "great titanian war" and the jet age was drastically changing aviation in the U.S.E. but terras was being left behind. originally it wasn't an issue for them because most jets were still militar and they had a "ground superiority" policy, focusing on tanks and heavily armed planes for tank busting. Unfortunately the country still needed to innovate so they turned to the old practice of just having a tech transfer from the U.S.E.
This wasn't something only they did, it also worked the other way around, for which the best example is the selling of over 300 Y2 class steam locos because the U.S.E. lacked good freight locomotives.
Long consultations were done and the country decided to buy up to 130 M.B.1 bombers and later landing on a license to build them.
some years pass, the war ends and the national airline lacks a jet airliner. Most of the fleet was composed of high speed turboprops and piston powered airliners but these planes while modern were going out of fashion and they would eventually need a jet replacement. Unfortunately for "Terrasian National Airlines" buying foreign aircraft would be too expensive since neither the U.S.E nor any other nation had an aircarft that would easily operate on the many lower quality airports of the country.
A large search for a possible aircraft was started and only one design proved to be ideal for the job, and it was the M.B.1.
At this point the T.N.A. was stuck in a corner; either ask an Erthian builder to build an aircraft with similar capabilities or using the Terrasian-built version of the M.B.1 as a basis. Eventually the company settled on the second option for being cheaper.
Yirkut aviation, the national airliner builder, borrowed the blue-prints for the M.B.1 and started modifying the design.
First, the fuselage was elongated and the floor was lowered to allow better accomodations, the bomb bay was obviously eliminated and the wing got a slight redesign being longer, more swept forward and now sitting on its own above fuselage box; Second, all militar equipment like turrets, bombs, the heavy radar structure were removed allowing more space/ better
cockpit visibility and finally the engines power was increased, 2 external fuel tanks were added to extend range and flaps were added.
Testing went smoothly and the plane was called P.Y. 20 with P standing for "passenger plane", Y for Yirkut and 20 being the serial number of the plane.
The plane entered service after 6 years of development and while a large number of 160 were built and put into service for the T.N.A. they didn't have the best reputation at first, not because of the plane itself, but because of how it came to be.
Many people criticized that it was just a copy of the M.B.1 and that's were it took the name of "undercover agent", being a """"stolen"""" design. Many people from the U.S.E and Terras laughed at the aircraft but despite this with time they got used to it and the aircraft went on to be a pretty reliable vehicle that despite some flaws and a bit of a controversial design lived on and after beign withdrawn from service it was either preserved or sold to other small airlines.
