Hi all
I’ve seen Crimson Skies posted to .space before, so I thought I’d see what
you all think. (also post to .military)

rearranging of common aircraft elements from the era.
To be honest, your plane looks good, but it looks like your average airplane.

Wow, the GA himself! Still posting from the barrel in your cell?
Thanks for the reply. But I think I’d disagree on that point--many of the
planes in the game are just regular planes (I bought the game to see what all
the hype was about). For example, the Coyote, Brigand, and Dust Devil are all

Now, with that said, I do agree that it’s just your Average Joe plane. Just a
study into the field, really. But I thought it turned out well enough to
present to the community.
Thanks again for the reply. And don’t worry, GA, we’re on our way...
