[PEA] Gloster Trent Meteor

63.2k TheMouse  11 months ago

Part Efficient Aircrafts!

(Probably, I still gotta be approved by Monarchii, although I believe it follows all the rules.)


“The Gloster Trent-Meteor has a unique place in aviation history as the aircraft which pioneered turboprop power, and this type of powerplant has since become one of the standard types of engine used on short- and medium-range airliners.
The aircraft used for the Trent conversion was one of the first batch of production Gloster Meteor F.1 fighters, EE227, modified for trials.
The Trent was intended only as a research engine, and valuable results were obtained, especially in determining the effect of a propeller hub on the efficiency of the turbine's air intake, and in the development of suitable reduction gears.“ -this random website


This is a PEA I made. It was suggested by Monarchii, and I really liked the design, so I made this. It was not especially difficult to build, but getting the wings and props to look right was much more difficult. I did not add a ton of extra details, so it is only 38 parts, but I tried to make it look and fly as realistically as possible. (While still being Ai capable)
The tail took me the longest, as I had to get the wings to look good, while still being attached to the plane. I cannot even to begin to tell how many times I started the game only to have one (or both) of my horizontal stabilizers fall off.
Anyway, I hope you like it! And please put any suggestions you have for PEA aircrafts in the comments, if you have any. I intend to make many more of them.

    @TheMouse poggers; thumbnail's quite decent, although if I'm going to be pedantic(which I am), the sea is a bit too much blue and the white vignette edge is a bit too much, other than that, nothin; I'll list it soon, brb
