Maybe I am stupid but ... C-5

Hi,

just for your info, I started to play around with that old C-5M that never got off the ground. She flies now, but there is still a lot to do, she has no instruments and balance problems, the fuel system is non-existent and I am pretty sure "wireframe" is not a livery. So, give me a little more time and we put it up at FGMEMBERS.

J.

That is very great. I'm sure with some work it will be awesome. You are a machine!
You deserve this:

It's a badge of a Ilyushin Il-62 if I'm right.

Well, we can create our own badges over time ... but then we end up with making batches of badges for

- the most beaten up FG contributor
- Crash of the Month
- who got the most segfaults

and such things :shock:

Most dramatic crash of the year: Robinson R44 flies through Golden gate Bridge, clips a wire, falls to the ground, hits the building at one end, and explodes in a ball of flames. O_O

My goodness, imagine the pilot hits the wrong button, and "OMG" BAIL OUT!
Thinking that the plane is tipping over when the nose is rising :)
