I was in a park thinking to myself why does a Frisbee get bigger the closer it gets, and then it hit me..... I used to make shoes for clowns and that was no small feat... I used to work in a helium gas factory but I refused to be spoken to in that tone so I quit. I said to a man, "I have a joke for everything!" "What about beavers?" "Damn!" BNAG That's bang out of order. I was talking to my friends about a guy standing across the street but he came up to me and said "You scum disgust me!" And I said "Yes, yes we did." Someone said he was going to dress up as an island off the coast of Italy. I said don't be s'silly. -
I'm planning to build a Meteor and certainly will have a hurricane done as well. The hunter, well I think is a bit hard to build and won't be building that but I'll build the Swift. I use AKS Weapons, BDynamics, BDArmoury, Skilful, ICE, CoffeeIndustries WWII cockpits, Stryker's Cockpits, Procedural Parts/Wings, Stock Part Revamp, Firespitter, Retro Future, SXT, ZZZ Flag Decals, Delta9 Flags.

SUPERMARINE SPITFIRE Ah, the Spitfire. Probably the most famous combat aircraft in history, easily the best dogfighting aircraft powered by a piston engine and probably the most adaptable at that. It is well known for its outstanding speed, turning circle, climb rate and its inspirational name. Original designed in 1934-35, the first Spitfire - Serial K5054 - first flew on March 6 1936 and was an instant success. It was ordered into production not long after and the first batch was delivered in 1938. It is almost overwhelming that in 1938 it had a top speed of 354 mph, weighed 2,692 KG fully loaded, while in 1948 it had a top speed of 460 mph and weighed 4,490 KG. Spitfire K5054 - First Spitfire Seafire FR.47 - Last Production Spitfire THE ONE I BUILT This pretty little replica has a high top speed, but its turning circle is lacking and that'll have to be sorted. I do think it looks rather convincing, especially from the front, bottom and top. Its part count is 44 and weighs roughly 6-7 tonnes - slightly heavier than a real one - but its is fun to fly and pretty to look at so I'm happy. -Accurate Gear Placement -Aerodynamic Chin Inlet (FR.47 Variant) -Rolls Royce Griffon (.cfg edit, F.12-47 variants) -F.14-21 Style Tailfin -High-Back Fuselage (F.1-14, F.21 Variant) -Full Elliptical Wing (F.1-F.18 Variants) Unfortunately, due to the wide variety of mods and the .cfg edited parts there shall be no download for this plane. GLOSTER JAVELIN The Gloster Javelin is the first delta-wing interceptor put into service. It first flew in 1951 as the Gloster G.A.5, later named Javelin with the 3rd prototype. It was put into active service in 1956 and was kept in service until 1968. It was noted to be incredibly agile and was able to breach the sound barrier in a shallow dive, THE ONE I BUILT The one I made ingame was originally modded but I have since 'stockified' it. (PLEASE NOTE - I'M USING STOCK PART REVAMP TEXTURES) -Fairly accurate wing-shape -Rather similar lines It is fast, has good endurance and is decently manoeuvrable - just like the real thing! ​HAWKER HURRICANE The Hurricane is the Spitfire's 'ugly' stable mate. It was credited with two thirds of all aircraft shot down in the Battle of Britain with nearly one third being credited to the Spitfire. Over 14,000 were produced between 1937 and 1944 and found itself most useful in the tank-busting role in deserts and destroying bomber aircraft. THE ONE I MADE It is sweet looking and has a brilliant turning circle. It has a lot of power which gives it a nice top speed. -Nice Lines -RAF Roundels -Correct Wing-Shape -Decent Proportions GLOSTER METEOR F.I The Meteor was the first allied jet fighter and during its long service career it proved to be hugely successful. Going into service in 1944, it remained in service with the RAF until the late 50s and much later with countless other Air Forces. THE ONE I BUILT This one I made uses the SXT .6 metre engines that only exert 20 kilo-newtons of thrust each and even so it has excellent performance. -You Would Recognise It From Miles Away -Accurate Looking Lines -Accurate Welland Engine Nacelles -Smooth Take-Offs SAAB J-29 TUNNAN The Saab Tunnan was the first pure jet fighter built in Sweeden and despite its rather fat, rotund appearance it is very fast and very agile. THE ONE I MADE This one here is just as is stated in the description, fast and agile. -Fairly Accurate Shape -Decent Gear Placement -Short Take-Off -Closely Shaped Wings MORE SOON

Jeb & Bill - Extreme Russian Roulette
MightyDarkStar replied to MightyDarkStar's topic in KSP Fan Works
Well, how bad is it? What do you guys think? -
Extreme Russian Roulette - A KSP Short It was an icy cold night. Snow and haze blocked off the last glimmer of light from a setting sun. Jebediah was dragging the terrified Bill by the ear across the jagged taxi-way and dispersal area not far from the Space Plane Hanger. He let go of his hand leaving Bill limp and shivering on the slippery tarmac, and proceeded to clamber up a ladder laid down by a relatively small storage unit. Jeb angrily threw open a pair of roof-borne doors and reached down into the unit and brought out a very heavy looking case, nearly as big as Jeb himself. He slung the strap of the bag over his shoulder and slowly walked towards Bill. Bill has clutched by the neck and was stood up. His teeth clattered around like a gyrating bear-trap. "I told you Bill, if you ever even TRY to fly out MY Aeris, you would pay." Jeb said rather calmly, too calmly... "But it w-was m-mine! You were told by Ge-en-ne multiple times t-that we were r-r-receiving the new Aer-ris 3A-B. I chose the same basic paint-scheme as you did w-when we got our 3As!" Bill cried "Hah! Don't give me that rubbish, I think I'd be able to remember such a conversation." "Jeb y-you've had at l-l-least 47.4 concussions since 0.7.3!" "Sure and my name is...- Um... What even IS the difference with the new Aeris anyway?" Jeb asked, slightly nauseated "A new turbojet engine with an axial compressor, replacing the primitive centrifugal one." Bill replied. Jeb, now starting to get cold, headed towards that new Admin Building beckoning Bill to follow. Jeb smashed open the doors and cautiously stepped down the stairs to the basement with Bill hesitantly following. "Sit down." Jeb said with a menacing look in his eyes. There was a marble table with two wooden chairs. Bill sat in one while Jeb slammed the heavy case down on the table. He unzipped the case and opened the flap on which was written A.D.E.N 30mm - For Ravenspear Mk V Fighter. Bill knew that something was up, and then he remembered the deal. Once opened the weapon was revealed. It was an A.D.E.N 30mm *Revolver Cannon, the one found on the real life Hawker Hunter and Gloster Javelin. A cry of shock and fear escaped from Bill's throat. The long silver barrel was a big a his arm and the immense weight gave it a sense of quality, like it was just eager to kill him. The firing chamber was much like that of a revolver firearm, with may shell chambers in a revolving cylinder that spins at the smack of a hand. Jeb reached into a small pocket and grabbed a 30mm shell. It was placed in front of Bill. "This is something I like to call, EXTREME Russian Roulette. I place the shell into the firing chamber, spin it a couple times, press that little button there, and see what happens. We keep taking turns until one of us is killed." Jeb said with a slightly manic grin, staring with cold, dead eyes into Bill's very soul. He placed the shell into the chamber and gave it a few spins. With all of his strength he lifted the gun out of its case and faced the barrel towards Bill's chest. Bill's eyes closed and Jeb depressed the switch for a second. A slight whirring sound occurred as the cylinder spun yet no shell fired. "Lucky." Jeb whispered. "Your turn!" Bill wiped his sweaty palms on his trousers and spun the gun round and aimed it at Jebediah. He fired. The whirring sound appeared and again, no shell. "Phew, I could hear the angels for a second.." "God-damned luck, sometimes I don't know why I bother." Bill complained. " Tell you what," Jeb said as he reached for some more shells, "..there are, say, 30 or 40 so firing chambers in the cylinder, so how 'bout I slot in another couple in the gun, it might end this quicker?" "Whatever you want, it was your bloody idea anyway..." Jeb did just that. He turned it around again and pointed it at Bill... *Click*, nothing. "Wow, you must be made of luck, aye?" "Probably..." Bill sighed. Bill took hold of the gun and aimed at Jeb. "Here goes..." Bill said. *RATATATATATATATA* The explosive power of the five shells shook the small concrete basement and dust and rubble fell from the ceiling. Jeb's torn, mutilated body lay crashed on the floor, pieces of ribs, organ and gut spilled all over the place. Bill stared with blind shock and horror at the bloody corpse strewn over the floor... But, somehow, Jeb appeared behind Bill laughing his mental head off saying "Heh, you didn't forget that we are part of The Original Three...right? We can't die! We just get re-spawned over and over and bloody over again. Those guys building our rockets have some sympathy....maybe." He said with a happy, forgiving smile. And that was the story of how Bill got into a bit of bother, Jeb was killed yet wasn't (as normal) and how writer MightyDarkStar got inspired after reading that story The Last Spin by Evan Hunter... Please don't let me write a sequel....

[v0.90/v.25]Transparent Pods v1.2.2 for KSP v0.90
MightyDarkStar replied to nli2work's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
Thanks, these parts have inspired me to build great planes. Making a Twin-Mustang/Bf-109Z style fighter was much easier. -
English Electric Lightning! DOWNLOAD HERE!
MightyDarkStar replied to Shaun's topic in KSP1 The Spacecraft Exchange
It completely surpasses the one I made. I'll send a picture later. I had to look at the way you built it to make mine look even close anyways. Yours seems to be based on the F.6 variant, while mine is based on the F.1/2a. On mine I skipped that belly tank as that was optional. -
Nah, joined July this year. The user below me is eating a snack.
