1,542 DeepFriedIndustries  4.4 years ago

Ok, so basically: I was bored. Then I thought: I could upload a plane! Thinking again a realised that simpleplanes is almost dead right now. This is the result of my boredom.

What is a tri/biplane?

A biplane or biplane is an airplane with two superimposed wings, one of which is attached to the bottom and one to the top of the fuselage.(that was google translate so i hope it works)
