New Aircraft

[DK2132]

Post your Ideas for new Flightgear aircraft and someone might make it

[DK2132]

I would like a 747-8f under the GNU GPL licence and some liveries for it

[Kristogratia]

Just stop to make a thread like this. We already have so much aircraft but still need to be developed. But, if you want, why don't you make it by yourself?

Best Regards,
Christogratia I. Simbolon

Edit:
FYI, 747-8 already exists and seems to be broken as there is no one work on it. You can develop it

[bugman]

Wish lists won't get you very far, unless you are willing to roll up your own selves and get into it yourself You'd pretty much have to start from scratch though:

[wik] Boeing 747-8F (permalink for the abandoned development state).

Agreed. Most developer make the aircraft they want, not what others want.

Kind Regards,

There already exists a working 747-8F. It's included with the 747-8i on fgaddon (or the link in my signature below).

[bugman]

@tikibar: Right, I completely forgot about that! I'll update the wiki pages. I might delete that lost stub of a 787-8f and redirect the page to the -8i article.

Cheers,
Edward

Edit: I have also updated the Boeing wiki template, which I've recently updated with all the other manufacturer navigation templates, to include the -8f as a redirect to Boeing 747-8i.

@bugman, if the "lost stub of a 787-8f" is a different model (as in mesh) I would leave it in place so someone could find it should they want to work on it. Especially if it is a better or higher res model.

Like all of Krb1's 3D models on the wiki, there is nothing but dead links. I tried my best to find anything for these, but I found absolutely nothing. Hence I placed them into the so called Bermuda Triangle aircraft hangar. Generally the wiki maintainers deleted such articles (Gijs especially), but I saved them there. But for these models I was very close to deleting them as there is nothing.

Edward

Oh I see, that's too bad.

As far as I know Isiah Prestes hangar's aircraft are still being hosted in GitHub on the 'other' repository.

[bugman]

I've placed some of Prestes' aircraft that are not in FGAddon into:

[wiki] Category:Prestes hangar

Others, like the DC-10 still need to be converted to the new aircraft infobox template design that I created to place it into this hangar category. Note that some of the aircraft still have valid download links on the wiki, e.g. 737-500.

I also believe that Prestes' wiki user name is Isix. The only wiki contributions from the user Krb1 were a few articles and screenshots in AC3D of his half finished 3D work back in August 2012. No one, as far as I know, still has these stub models.

If successful would be cool to have a AW109 hems\medevac

[DK2132]

Does anyone know what the link for the development site is?

[bugman]

The best link might be:

[wiki] FGAddon
