An almost 1:1 scale Blue Angels F/A-18!
This plane is the first half of my 50k BLUE(Angels)(Thunder)BIRDS project. These 2 planes are definitely my favorite!

The Blue Angels is the United States Navy's flight demonstration squadron, with aviators from the Navy and Marines
Trim to use flaps
If anyone could get 4 or 5 of these planes flying in formation in SP, I'd love to see pictures!
When taking off, be very careful and keep her going straight. For some reason both my 50k planes suffer from slight physics bugs.
I hope you enjoy!

@Planebuilder1010 dude it is a replica if your mobile then dont download it
Think Planebuilder1010 Think!
Here’s an idea
GET RID OF THE NUMBER
WHO NEEDS THE STUPID NUMBER ON THE RUDDER
Yeah ok, just want to know for shure, thank u @Cedy117
He probably wouldn't mind just give him credit in the description @Luuk2909
@Cedy117 is it allowed to take the letters on the wing of this plane and put it on mine, since john hasnt been online for a while im asking u
Anyone here been to the air show at Jones Beach, Long Island NY
Superb.. :)
Really cool. You should try experimenting with exhaust scale changed thrust ports with a blue color for detailed engines like this. My heinikel uses the technique as well as my EA-6B
This might be the best replica I've ever seen.
Nice work!
