At last I get around
to reworking the files that have been lost since the FS5 days,....
I figured I should start out with something easy at first : a sailplane
design! I didn't have a sailplane to make and have never had any
interest in soaring, so I figured now would be the appropriate time to
give my shot at a "simple little" sailplane design..."for fun". I
made a fairly decent design in one day, but alot was still missing~
extremely early "crude-version"
As things ALWAYS end up,...this "simple little" design has turned into a serious project. I couldn't stand doing it without an engine and that is where things started to really take shape. I had seen many RC planes with push-prop style engines on top suported by an arm extending out of the top of the fuselage, and decided that could be a neat look for an FS plane,...and some sort of COLOR.
"flying bluprint version"
As things currently stood I had only used 6 glue templates and utilized the AF blueprints as textures. I had a fairly decent design already going with all primary flight controls animated and a transparent canopy,...onto the TEXTURES!
"BETA version" at the L-HQ Waterway
All nice and painted: I just had to snap a pic at my favorite spot (and FS-startup situation)...The Waterway near LomcováK Headquarters, a small group of buildings on the famous (maybe infamous by now) "Island Without Name" that I am always working on...and where I test EVERYTHING I can get my hands on or create...

New 3000' Runway, 9-27
After having a few test flights I decided to go off on a tangent and mess around with scenery design a bit more, I added a few things to "The Island" including a new runway specifically for smaller planes. It also adds a little bit of a challenge with those TALL palm trees on the approach end of RWY-27, I had to displace the threshold 400 feet!
The "Waterway Approach" to Runway 27
71.4 foot span dwarfs the Eagles,...over 14
feet more than the Schweizer 2-32
