I am putting together a fantasy plane addon for SDOE. I will be including the planes on my homepage and several others. I plan to have about 20 planes in total. The planes I put in it will not be real planes. They are any planes I can make from the orginial planes from SDOE. Does anyone have request for a plane that they would like to see, that is possible to make from the planes in the game. If you would like to get a view of a few of the planes in the pack, just go to my page and look at the planes page.------------------ Thanks, James "Razor747" Smith Check out the SDOE Flight Line! I am constantly adding new things. Click on image above to go to my site.

Spanky here... Well ya got me and Mad Dog excited. He wants a flying landing feild. Like a carrier but bigger. that flys with a big prop at each of 4 corners. Hmm maybe some sort or parisite fighter setup. Or even a huge bomb. Maybe take petes V2 and lauch that sucker out of a Bulged bombay in the B17 or lanc. either as a bomb or an air to ground rocket. Maybe make that sucker flyable but another pilot or by the pilot of the 17. How about a b17 gunship. Cut some holes in the side and put a couple gunners in the side. Boost the engines a bit and come up beside another bomber in that puppy. K crazy idea It should be facing up you would have pusher props and be flying towards the tail and 2 more. Quick PSP hacks and highly compressed but you get the idea This is going to be so damn cool Try to think unconventional. Crazy style. I'm thinking of mixing bomber parts with fighter parts.

How about a B-17 with some serious firepower - say replace all the guns with the guns from the Hanomag or Matilda? and maybe jet powered? I've always thought the tail gunner was a little weak - how about 6 guns instead of 2.Also, I'd liek to see Mossie with a really big gun - like a WWII A-10. -Stark IP: Logged |

There was a real mossie with a big honking (57mm?) cannon on it used for sub hunting. Elric made one I don't know if its still around. TS

how about having it so that the wings on "A" plane rotate so that you have a verticle takeoff plane like the Bell XV - 15 or Bell X22?How about some form of glider? I do like the idea of a floating airfield...talk about "Captain Scarlet....dum de dum dum....."sing along now.....LOL ------------------ ~MrBlob~ IP: Logged |

Upgrade the Ju88L to have Ju88g7b cannons, I fly the Ju88L at present and the flight performance is great but it lacks the killer punch on bombers. Also Mosquito with upgraded merlins (2 stage superchargers) and Molins cannon, speed to outpace fighters and a 57mm cannon to die for. IP: Logged |

Spanky here... I was thinking a plane that fires flak A whole flak gun on the top of a lanc. That can swivel like turret gunner. How about tailslides open hanger with a bit of runway coming out both ends with a huge tail and one end (split tail like a lanc) and at the front HUGE wings with around 5 engines per wing and masive landing gear. I'll be back with more in a couple hehe mad dog has a couple 2
remember boys CRAZY mix ground objects with ship and bombers and fighters and the waycker the better. Hang and aircraft carrier deck and con tower under the zipplen. maybe put one top and join them with an elevator that goes right through the zep. Give that sucker some defensive stuff too. carefull with the polys though.

K Mad Dog sees an airfeild suspened above the overcast cloud layer Just above. Held up there by a set of towers at each corner. Use the radio airals. then put a hole in the middle with gently sloping ramps that you can drive down to take off. Me and mad dog propose a Wacky Wednesday where we fly the crazy plane pack.
What do you guys think?

More calls for the Mossie FB.XVIII? Ok, ok, I'll finish it, but don't expect a wonderful FM. Just a bit more modelling and texturing then...Elric IP: Logged |

Spanky here... Yeah me and mad dog had another one make that airfeild suspended on the towers moveable. Make it so it can move up and down the towers so it can be at ground level or really high. Make it so the airfeild has an operator and put him in the tower (make the tower about 3 times as high so you can see really good. and he could control landing traffic. and some gun turrets or flak guns to defend it. you could put an altimiter in the tower so you could see how high it was and tell the people landing. some turrets or flak hanging off the bottom too.

Its not what you are asking for....but I keep having fantasies of Martian craft from the old 50's War of the Worlds show. It would be a crazy fun mission to fight off two or three of these ships as they devestated an airfield. Heck, they don't really need to even fly, they could be a moving ground object like pete's creations, with a modified flack gun on a turret.IP: Logged |

goth, if you like that scenario then read Turtledove's "Earth in the Balance" series. Four books about an alien invasion during WWII. Great reads. Hard to put down. Turtledove is a History professor at UCLA and weaves actual history and people into the story.If you're interested email me and I'll tell you more about the storyline. IP: Logged |

Hrmmm... I dunno if the flying airfield would work... wouldn't the plane not be able to land, because if the carrier was moving fast, the airflow over the wings of the landing plane would be such that the plane would not be able to land due to the speed of the carrier? However, I suppose an easy way to fix this would have the carrier go real slow... =phehehe - it would be funny to see all these planes sitting atop a carrier, then the carrier increases speed, and all the planes start to lift off and fall away towards the ground... ------------------ -Capt.

Spanky here... Now thats some thinking. Ya got a point there. We have to make it so the flying carrier can go really slow and has a hanger to park in for fast transit

Spanky here... K i had some fun last night and tried some stuff out here is the results LOTS left to do.
Couple questions for anyone that knows
if a plane was inside the balloon of the zep would it be uneffected by wind? and the deck (of course) doesn't work anymore so you just fly right through it. How do we fix this? I'm working on the textures. that should be the easy part. [This message has been edited by Spanky the Mad Dog (edited 02-17-2000).] IP: Logged |

This kicks ass...Didn't they try launching planes from Zeppelins in WWI? Didn't they hang off of a hook or something....
