Okay, great to hear that you have it already on the list, I can wait until you want to build planes again :)
Mean Green  [author] 28 Mar, 2023 @ 2:21pm 
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!
Mean Green  [author] 17 Mar, 2023 @ 5:31am 
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?
Mean Green  [author] 13 Mar, 2023 @ 7:09pm 
Glad you like it. :)

Italian very nice! Expanding the vehicles I see!

Pawbur 13 Mar, 2023 @ 3:31pm 
Yea that one, with two floats, I really like it. I can wait until you will build it :)
Mean Green  [author] 13 Mar, 2023 @ 3:29pm 
It's a nice plane BTW :)
Mean Green  [author] 13 Mar, 2023 @ 3:28pm 
The Aichi E13A "Jake"? I can put it on the list, but as I said no promises to when I''ll get to it. :)
Pawbur 13 Mar, 2023 @ 3:24pm 
Okay, I now understand. Thank you for your response. :)
Pawbur 13 Mar, 2023 @ 3:21pm 
I also forgot about one more plane: maybe you can build the Japanese Aichi floatplane (forgot the full name) I really like that plane, I really would like to subscribe that plane if you would build it.
Mean Green  [author] 13 Mar, 2023 @ 3:20pm

I have a few non-WW2 planes on there too.

The Po-2 is on my list to build, I haven't built it yet. Sorry for the misunderstanding. As stated elsewhere I have over 70 planes on my to-do list so no telling when any of them will be built I'm afraid, especially since I do not build them in any particular order.
Pawbur 13 Mar, 2023 @ 3:14pm 
Okay, I understand, but one thing: where is the PO-2? I can't find it anywhere, can you give me the link to it?
Mean Green  [author] 13 Mar, 2023 @ 1:40pm 
My "goal" (if I have one) is to build planes that look decently like their real counterparts (on the outside), fly decently and at least semi-realistically, and can hopefully deliver whatever weapon load they have in the game. I have no desire to make super-accurate detailed builds with hundreds of extra pieces painstakingly put in place to create a "realsitic" interior. Sorry but it's just not my thing. You'll have to ask someone else for that kind of thing, or do it yourself. :)

The Po-2 is already on my list, but tbh that one and other bi-planes like the ones you suggest will be very far down on my priority list since it's not really what I'm interested in building, and especially with the broken aerodynamics as they are now not really allowing slow planes like that to fly properly or barely even take off. (The bi-planes I have built were sort of a reaction to the broken aerodynamics in 1.2, and trying to make them work in 1.3 has not been a fun experience and I only ever did the Sopwith Camel and tried for hours to make the Fokker Triplane work but it just doesn't so bi-planes will have to wait for now.)

And I've had a few requests to build more detailed and "working" interiors, but again that's not really something I'm particularly interested in. I don't have the energy nor the patience to spend dozens of hours trying to create detailed interiors with the extremely blunt instruments offered by the game, details most people, including myself, don't really care that much about after the initial 10 seconds of "wow that looks nice". So, sorry but that will most likely not happen.
I've hought about maybe trying to make the canopy ejectable or openable for RP reasons, but again the blunbt tools offered by the game make me not have the energy or patience to make it look nice and work well. I'm not saying it's impossible, just that I don't feel like spending so many hours working on something that doesn't feel that important to me.
But who knows, maybe someday.
And as always please feel free to edit my planes and add any details and functionality you like to their interiors.
Pawbur 13 Mar, 2023 @ 1:19pm 
And of course by "cabin ejecting" I meant Canopy.
Pawbur 13 Mar, 2023 @ 1:02pm 
Hey Mean Green! I just wanted to say that you are building very good approximations, but also I wanted to ask one thing: Can you please make the PO-2 Bi-Plane (U2 in WW2) and the Sopwith 1/1/2 Strutter (and the Sopwith Pup)? and also, I have one idea: maybe try to make an openable cabin (and something like the cabin ejecting in P-51 and P-47)?
