Part 1 Design Specs - 5:05
Part 2 The Engine - 8:04
Part 3 The Airframe - 11:26
Part 4 The flight model and control surfaces - 13:50
Part 5 The Weapons - 15:40
Part 6 (Not named but this seems like an optimal point for a 6th part, and he said 6 parts so...) Cinematic and testing - 19:00

You know what I find nuts, the Lancaster's bomb load was considered ridiculously large for it's time yet less than 25 years later the Buccaneer would carry an even larger bomb load at transonic speeds. The rate of progress never ceased to amaze me

[Skelbton]

Aw hell sonny you don’t need those fancy automated turrets, back on my day all we had was a rear mounted Lewis gun and we really gave the Kaiser hell.

8:19 "most internal combustion engines work on internal combustion"
thank you Messier 82 for this information

[lloot]

It's always nice getting a little physics-, aerospace-, or history lesson in the beginning of your vids, keep doing it please.

I love these hypothetical designs. I would love a cold war war era build like this

He finally used different music in the building montage so we don't go insane

0:17 They strike things at long range strategically as part of the long range strategic strike group.

So looking at it, bo is smack dab in the middle of wolf pack territory (ignoring how it's presence would affect that) so I woukd assune bo woukd have a large number of maritime patrol/asw aircraft.... wonder what they would look

I used to love the He-111, that little blurb in the beginning is making me reconsider.

Featherless? ✅
Biped? ✅


Behold, a MAN

I understand making a v22 osprey stealth would be hard so I am asking for something more reasonable. Supersonic v22 osprey with jet engines 👍

she build my anatomy until everything gets Messier

It really reminds me of the Nakajima G8N1, especially the high caliber turret guns.

I think the brief history piece at the beginning worked well to establish why we wanted the design specs we want. How short/long it should be is probably worth experimenting with but putting the design goals in a context from the very start works well I think.

I want to see how you would redesign the F-104 Starfighter in Flyout, make it a worthy fighter instead of a coffin with wings. Maybe give it modern avionics too

[A_Very_Angry_Fish_With_Knife]

Messier a flyout tip to make better curved pipes for exhaust is to select all of the edit points and move it to be on top of the default location then you can rotate it from the base making a ring (-thickasfrick taught me that so i can not clame this idea but i can spread the idea)

“The year is 1940”
“The combustion chamber would send our piston into low orbit”

[Rullstolsboken]

videos similar to this with other types of planes from other eras would be a great series. and you dont even have to make specific aircraft for these, you can use fotage from your other videos if said plane fits

Looks cool, looks like an F7F Tigercat crossed with a Lancaster
