Description
FOR VERSION 1.3!
My take on the Italian Macchi C.205V Veltro (Greyhound) fighter plane.
It's an approximation, not a 1:1 replica.

The Macchi C.205 was developed as an improvement on the Macchi C.202. Production was started in September 1942 and 262 were made.

This is the fighter- bomber version armed with 2 × 12.7 mm Breda-SAFAT machine guns in the nose (I use double machine guns) and 2 × 20 mm MG 151 cannon in the wings (I've had to switch places since the big machine guns I use as 20mm guns are too big to fit in the wings), and it also carries 2 x 160 kg bombs under the wings.

Alt controls to fly.
W/S: Variable Throttle.
S: Ground brake.
A/D: Ground steering/Yaw.
Up/Down arrow: Pitch.
Left/Right arrow: Roll.
X/Disable steering: Landing gear.
Fire action 1/Num 1: Machine guns and cannons.
Fire action 2-3/Num 2-3: Bombs.

This is yet another plane that refuses to go straight on the ground, so start pitching up max at about 80 kph to somewhat help with this annoying issue.

Sadly the Italian use of some pretty distinct camouflage patterns can not be reproduced in Brick Rigs so I use the pure base colour.

Feel free to edit, but if you re-upload publically in any way please acknowledge the original cretion and creator.

Have fun!

Okay, great to hear that you have it already on the list, I can wait until you want to build planes again :)

The He-280 is on my list already.
Just FYI I'm a bit burned out on building planes in BR at the moment after 2,000+ hours of building and testing and tweaking and re-tweaking after each update where aero just gets worse and so far what I've seen and tried in 1.4 Experimental really doesn't help with that so I'm on taking a break from planes for now.

Hi again Mean Green, I wanted to let you know that I forgot to tell you about one more plane I wanted you to build, the plane I mean is Heinkel HE-280, could you please add it to your to-build list?

I've uploaded a sort of "what if" version G Memphis Belle. The green splotches on the original are hard to recreate in BR so I left them out, and the lovely pics of the ladies are represented by the blue and red window posts, but it has the right letters and numbers and the 25 missions marking painted on.

that can work!

The Memphis Belle is the F version and has the unfortunate (for Brick Rigs) front guns going through the glass nose cone. That just doesn't look good or work well in the game. The reason I chose the G version was just because of that since I couldn't make a decent nose that worked with two guns poking through it. Memphis Belle also had the older, longer version of the tail and right now I don't have the energy to re-build the tail section TBH.
What I can do is give my G version the markings of Memphis Belle (minus the lady) if you want? It won't be "correct", but the plane won't even work after the next update it seems so...

Love it! Could you make the Memphis Belle?
