The objective is to replicate a real FIGHTER aircraft used during WWII. This means no bombers. For powerplants, aircraft are allowed to use both jet engines and props, but try to keep it realistic. I recommend you all do your research. Try to make them medium sized, comparable in size to my P-51D. All applications must be new, not something at you build a month ago and then tried to enter into the competition. All legitimate applications will recieve 5stars . 1st place: 10 Five ?? ratings 2nd place: 7 five ??ratings 3rd place: 5 five ?? ratings. Contest will be over on 4/16/15 12:00 EST

I NEVER said that it was based by ratings. I chose the designs that I felt were best, all around, not simply the most popular. @rth1131999

Yes I did realize that. But basing it solely on ratings is kinda discriminating against those who have decent aircraft, but almost no ratings. Basically only a popularity contest instead of what it is supposed to be, a contest of design.

@Allstarship- ............. Isn't this not supposed to be judged by ratings, and rather actual looks, performance, and realism?

You get 5 stars for your submission. If the landing gear are wierd, you can scrap them and make it an air-start vehicle @WalrusAircraft
