Man, you need to rebuild this with beta parts.

@Geebers Glad one of my crafts got you into the game!

@Scriefers even though it may be old, this plane was the first one I downloaded from the newest tab, and my intro to Simpleplanes!

THE BIRTH OF THE LEGEND

@Scriefers Definitely. Just look at the hyper-realistic 'series'

@PuhBuhGuh oh right on, my man. Yeah I've certainly come a long way since this old heep of a jet.

@Scriefers awwww I was going through your planes to give a rating to the birth of the legend!

I had just realized how to download planes, and found this one on top of the newest section, what luck! Anyways, I never downloaded it until a few days later because I had awful network on the road. It's truly amazing to see how far peoe have come!

@Scriefers pls check out my me 262 and my British Heavy Bomber

You should redo the me 262 now that your much better

@Scriefers oh

It was my first uploaded replica. My first plane was a very small prop plane that I've since deleted off my device. @DragonCreations

@Scriefers is this your first airplane?

Nice

Fair enough but you can get away without them... I need modded fuel and such to balance out all my weirdly shaped fictional replicas..

Whoa, that was a novel... Sorry for the wall of text, @Zing2000.

I got nothing against them or builders that use modded parts, but I just feel like it takes the challenge away. So far I've just been a replica builder, and that's because I like the challenge of taking an existing plane, that has established designs and specifications, and recreating it in a game that limits you with rudimentary building blocks and the like. It's difficult and rewarding. I want to make clear that I don't see modded parts as cheating. In fact it's impressive how people are able to edit the game's code to make what they want; it's way above my technical prowess and understanding. But I do feel as though using modded parts is akin to taking the easy way out. To me, half the fun of this game is the constant trial and error of getting aesthetic shapes, implementing sufficient thrust, and establishing good flight characteristics using only the items supplied. That being said, I've seen some fantastic planes that used modded pieces, and I enjoyed flying them. However, I must say I am a little worried that future updates might make building pieces more and more customizable. This isn't necessarily a bad progression and it may open the door to many exciting possibilities, but it'll take away the challenge and appreciation people have towards other's builds. Anyway, those are my thoughts on the matter. @Zing2000

why do you not use modded parts?

This was the first replica plane I made. I didn't know about part clipping when I was make my first few planes. @Epyx

Is this the first plane you made? I can see a slight difference in this when compared to some of you other planes.
