  1. Focke-Wulf Fw 190 for 1.0.2. More pictures I couldn't find a good replica of the Fw 190 so I decided to put a simple one together. This craft requires Kerbal Aircraft Expansion for 1.0.2. but is otherwise stock. I tried to strike a balance between low part count, faithfulness to the historical design, and performance. This plane flies beautifully and is very manoeuvrable and easy to fly and land. Top speed about 100m/s at low altitude. With SAS on, it takes off automatically at about 30m/s. Recommended landing speed no more than 40-50m/s. Turn off the engine just before touchdown and apply brakes immediately, otherwise it will take too long to come to a stop on the single rear brake (enabling the front brakes will cause the plane to tip over). Replace the radial engine with a turboprop for more realistic speeds but with historically inaccurate technology. KerbalX link for craft file
  2. I've been playing and lurking around here since .18, but only just registered. They all still scare me, even though I'm been playing on and off for a year now. I've never sent a manned mission beyond the Mun and Minmus because I'm absolutely (and rather inexplicably) terrified of leaving kerbals stranded on alien worlds. Never had a problem sending probes anywhere though, and I also love smashing them into planets and sending them off on solar escape trajectories.
