Hello, y'all!
It has certainly been quite a while and I wanted to bring something. About 1.6 years ago, the update was released for SimplePlanes 1.11. I wanted to try and expand my skills out for a major project, and I decided I'd use my number one ambition when it comes to aviation - the B-36 Peacemaker. Of course, I saw and tested AsteroidBook's B-36 and I loved it. I did a ton of research and tried making an amazing one. I used outdated skills and I did not know the new system well, and all to say, this is not the best representation I wanted or can do.
So, I am going to do better. I have a model of a B-36 that is 3 feet wide, and I also have pictures of the one in Dayton, Ohio. So this is a testament to my abilities. This still is arguably a great build, just not the best. I intended to do a full interior and everything, but its not worth it. But I worked far too long on this to not post it. If you'd like to work on to it and finish it, feel free! Please just give me credit. Either way, I am going to start on a new build completely from scratch. No inspiration from other builds, 100% me, with my newfound knowledge and building skills. I have 3 projects rn, so I'm finishing the first two before I start on this once again, but I will bring everything full-force into the one after this
Anyways, with that out of the way, here are some features and the controls
Features:
- Reversable Props
- Working suspension
- nukessssss
- Fancy Bomb Bay Doors
- Fancy Rear-Facing Gun
- Realistic flap-based control surfaces
- Thicccccc
Controls:
- 1-3 is for the props
- 8 is for lights
- Either 4 or 7 is for the jets, there is a like 20-second start-up, and those damn jets took forever to finish and make look good
- VTOL up for forwards thrust, VTOL down for reverse props (useful for landing, like on the real one)
I hope y'all enjoy!!!

Once Again, I am sorry guys. This was certainly not my best, alas, I intend on making this brand spanking new and completely starting from scratch. Right now, I am working on an IAR 80 on my own, and a TBF-1C with my buddy PapaKernels. After that, I am going to start on a YMF-1A Airacuda and then on the official B-36J-III Peacemaker that I truly want to make the greatest build I have ever made. With that, I wish you all an amazing day
@TrojanAircraftSystems hot damn, sounds great though! Happy for you dude.

Pretty similar here. Tired and ready to just slouch over. Getting ready for my first year of college, been working every day. Starting to work out
@LieutenantSOT Life… uhh… finds away.
Got a year of college behind me, just survived the 4th of July with 10 fingers, and I've lost a few pounds. Life is good. You?
Everyone who upvoted this is plat by now and I'm still stuck on gold :(
I need to get back into this game...
@TrojanAircraftSystems crap I don't remember if I responded to you at all lol
.
How's it going dude??
@TheSonOfThunder Lol. I'm gonna try to get back into the game. I've got a few ideas and prototypes stocked up for, since like the past year. Had a lot of crud (look at me being PG lol) in my life I've had to deal with first.
@TrojanAircraftSystems hey bro!! Thank you!! I actually have been wondering 😂 it's been some time, old friend!!
Whooooo weee! What a purty aeroplane. I know you weren't wondering but I am alive! Hello there! Kinda forgored I had the game lol.
@PapaKernels okay okay XD
Me when guy back from dead shocked face emoji
And hurry up on the tbf, i wanna play with it 😂
@Talon7192 okay good!!
@TheSonOfThunder yea it workeded
@Talon7192 did that work? hope it helps dude!
@TheSonOfThunder ohhhhhhh
Or rather, VTOL up
@Talon7192 did you VTOL forward? You need to get the props to stabilize. They don't automatically control their pitch
The props over speed and explode can you help?

@TheSonOfThunder Np mate
@WiFly oh, I'm sorry mate! I had you written down in my tags XD
Thank you so much though!!!
Hey,I really appreciate the tag though I didn't request it, makes me feel popular lol! Nice Build :D!
@HazerzIsBack you asked for a tag on my forum post!
.
Also, the reason I didn't finish this is becayse I lost inspiration and realized later on that I'd have to rebuild pretty much everything to make it accurate and smooth, so I'm just scrapping the project and starting anew
@HazerzIsBack wdym?
@TheSonOfThunder ?? Did i miss smth?
