Catching a Small Plane with a Giant Cargo Plane!

You guys should do these docking challenges in the high seas map. Just to see how the weather affects everything

You should try making it so you have to fly inside the cargo plane and land on a small runway inside, similar to how the carrier has runways inside as well.

I love how Yzuei replicated the biggest plane in the world for this challenge, and he actually did a really good job

Idea for the next challenge - A two part plane. Think of the way the Enterprise could split into saucer and drive section, see if you can do that Scrap. Design a plane, have a friend design another plane that shares a common connection point. Take off individually at first, then combine in the air and try to land the combined plane and keep it in once piece. Then take off combined, separate in the air and land as individual craft. Then for the third round, just see how many times you can combine and split without smashing eachother to pieces ;) Could be a pretty funny video, since the two planes are very unlikley to play nice once they're connected, making it hard to fly since you'd both have to try to cooperate to get anything done. I will stipulate though, you can not use the capture method you've been using! You'll have to come up with a new way to dock the two aircraft.

Bro made an A-225 for his cargo plane lol it’s cool

Even though she’s been destroyed, it’s builds like these that keep the legacy of the Antonov an-225 alive

5:43 I see scrapman is a man of culture

What if you jumped a submarine out of the water, into a catching bay on a plane? Closing some hooks fast enough might be rather difficult, but if the plane had a platform on the interior and a door through which the sub could jump through, you could have it rest inside the fuselage whilst the plane flies you about, before opening the door again and possibly tilting the resting platform down so that the sub can slide out and land back into the water.

I love that Yzuei did the An-225

Actual cargo door would be sweet, finding a way to simulate a mid air refuel also would be rad. And I agree doing these on the high seas map would add alot of interesting challenge

5:43 That landing was intact, butter, AND the best landing I’ve ever seen in a semi-realistic game

An-225, a true beauty, glad to see it remembered

by the looks of it Yzuei made the AN-225 wich carried the Buran space craft IRL (similar to the space shuttle but soviet) on its back meaning it would have made sense if you landed on the cargo planes back so you could land with the little plane attached

Catching little plain, joining Yzuei in his cockpit, doing a full loop, switching planes in the air and extracting each other.

in case anyone was wondering, Yzuei recreated the Antonov 225, which was originally developed to carry the Russian Buran space shuttle

Rest in peace, an-225😢

19:29 this is actually giving off a lil bit o' DCS vibes

Red bull: ok let's do it irl just to advertise our drink

If you have a problem with the plane nosing up or down just use a trim in for the elevator if its just some little to medium nosing down, but if its heavily nosing down then its good to redesign it, so you can save time.
