Good Q. Dunno answer: two reasons. 1. Both OSX and iOS base OS upgrades were "pushed" out over the last 48 hours, many of my apps no longer run as expected 2. I do not run games or save anything under Steam file control. @1997toyotasupra
Good to hear. Since my last (V3) post removed the embedded cockpit, it will be used by others as a subassembly if they choose so. Concept: large bomber releases the V3 home-made missile and the view by the camera shows impact. @SimpleEric
Agree, the modded speed is 4,000+ mph, BUT all it can hit is "air" at that Sim Speed. The post is a simple building block: replace jet with some stock SP Menu selections in order to hit real targets. It's just a game. @SimpleEric
Thanks, this aircraft missile is an experiment. BUT, it out flys the standard SP weapons. In Progress: building a large-enough digital aircraft model to launch several of these as payloads for a TBD island target.
Agree. BTW you upvoted a new missile post of mine which I deleted, it behaved so badly. A V3 Fast missile subassembly replaced it; it's yours to copy and modify if you choose. @SimpleEric
Thanks for feedback, yes I like many @Tully2001 builds. I've started to ignore challenges recently, since the rules say one thing, and the decision winner can be a "subjective" which entry has the prettiest paint scheme. @SimpleEric
Interesting. FYI I've disabled Steam on all Apple platforms, all including desktops. If Steam is ever stable on these platforms, I may toy around with a stable interface. Mostly, dull games rule Steam.
@Liquidfox Thank you! Per your observation, the design is unique. I searched for pusher-prop models on SP. Found few. There is a an oldie great post by @TheLatentImage
Beautiful, flying build (can it land?) and the VTOL control features are neat. Tested on several speed runs, and hard to tell if opening the "structure" parts helped with flying, at all, except the SP "physicists" seem to change sound volume not simulated air intake. Just a thought (for @AndrewGarrison et all).
OK will do -- this uses sticks + stones as building blocks, and I remain amazed SP still allows these older models to fly. (Checkout my Long Range Lightning, which is a little surprise in terms of flyability and speed). @VernalTie513
Thanks @CODENAMEBOB
Thanks @Tully2001
no problem @RAF1
Creative rotating lift and model design!
Outstanding build! (Water launches from more than one SIM spot are quite easy.)
Also I use iOS usually, see @NathanMikeska comment in intro, @1997toyotasupra

Thx, you are warm and fuzzy when it comes to grading stuff. @Tully2001

Are there any Moderators left?

No, a joke. This is a good build. The parasite fighter challenge is a new one for me....been doing other stuff. @SimpleEric
Only made my eyes go fuzzy twice while testing. Who's this @Tully2001 ?

Fantastic work! But, I gotta do better than my ipod to play this, I think.....
Thanks @ahappyape
Thanks @rubbishcraft
Thank you, @Insertname
@TheLatentImage Thanks! Yes, I emphasized looks over performance on this one.
Cool!
Thanks, glad you like it! @Treadmill103
Nice cockpit.

Air drop works great,rom Bandit! For future thought: Snowstone missiles ignore the payload and hit only the cockpit.
Looks like it was fun to build, and flight is okay, and easy!
Thx, this is an oldie "sticks & stones block" build that exceeded expectations; is difficult to fly, but of course, fast. @LooperEpic
Crowd pleaser decals. The cross-wires are tricky, and well done. OK flying. Good build!
Thx @Fishbowl1121
Easy landings, great!
Great SP truck!
@JovianPat OK
Thx for pointing this out; possibly this was your build then copied? @JovianPat
OK, thx @VernalTie513
Thanks, this one is kinda fast, with no attempt to limit the BAC Lightning's speed to mach 2 @VernalTie513
Thanks @VernalTie513
Works best in-air launch; 30-40% power. Power off landing. Great concept, keep it up!

Technically, has good mono-wing handling, which should easily beat standard bi-lane builds.
BTW @VernalTie513 and others, I never got around to posting the upgrades to this model......will do so when I get around to it; been on travel a bit.
Great replica decals/appearance! Looks like an an airshow version, maybe?
