Well I think we just can't keep bumping the work load up on the same bloke..... someone else new has to step up.....

Isn't there anyone inspired. ?

I think there are probably a lot of talented people (modders) out there who are simply waiting for the tools.

In the Flightsim community, it's apparently much harder to attract the skilled enthusiasts though, because many have become so tied to the FSX ecosystem that it seems nothing else interests them at all.

Outerras use of JSBSIM would theoretically make it a natural place for Flightgear alumni to explore, but they also have their own type of blinders in regards to everything needing to be open source.

Outerra will have to keep creating its own community for now until things reach critical mass, it seems.

We are lucky that there are a few shining stars.

Rough shape of wing is done! Will be checking that everything is right.. The wing is shaped after the NACA 64(3)-618 airfoil used by all variants. will be modelling airbrakes and ailerons another time.

Split each wing up into 8 sections, for the fdm and animation to come later ☺

Looking good Farlander.  You don't get enough credit for taking on 3d modelling from scratch!  I for one, know the amount of time it takes, and how many times you have to start over for various reasons.  Glad to see this still moving forward, and don't forget if you have a willing idiot such as myself, that would rather help out a flight sim buddy than say...brush his teeth, sleep, or pay taxes (JK, they're done (TY credit card!)), lemme know!  until then, I think we see if we can make the huffer into a ground vehicle mod for Outtera, it just needs a saddle.
