The P-3 Orion was a plane made in the 1960s and LockHeed based it on the LockHeed L-188 Electra commercial airliner. This plane is one of my favorite Navy planes. When I was younger and it would do touch and goes at my local airport, I called it “the military plane” and “stinger plane”. I love it because of its look and sound, its one of the best planes Ive heard! (This is for a challenge btw). I am not to happy about how mine turned out. It doesnt fly that well and cant pull up easily. I make my builds to look good and not fly well. I am still trying to figure out how to have a good plane and flyable plane, thats a long way down the road. Vtol for flaps AG2 and Vtol=gear flares=flares (duh)

Thanks!@KnightOfRen
I like this! @CobraHueyIndustries
I didn’t know how to capture the shape@KnightOfRen
The canopy is inacurate compared to the source material, but this looks more interesting. @CobraHueyIndustries
Yup! Now my planes are mostly flyable.@KnightOfRen
Fashion over function at it's finest.
Thanks! This plane is one of my worst planes though. It doesn’t fly that well, and wants to fall from the sky@KnightOfRen
This looks absolutely amazing!! The shape and level of detail is stunning!! I especially like the nose and wings! Keep building!
@OrangeCrush The plane doesnt pull up that well and drops.
Oh ok.@OrangeCrush
Who, I have no idea what you want me to fix.@OrangeCrush
So you want me to make it more maneuverable?@OrangeCrush
