New pilot!

[Millst0ne MK II]

You looking for a pilot? If you give me a good plane, I'll haul your cargo wherever it needs to be.

[Jeb KerBoom]

Great! I'll get you a plane.

[Millst0ne MK II]

Roger. I guess we'll share a presistance save file, so I can drop things and you can do whatever you want to do with em?

[Jeb KerBoom]

Perfect. This is turning into a "private conversation", though, and I don't want to get banned for this.

The ship's attached. You need the JellyCubes forward swept wing and hull Mk2 bicoupler though.

[Jeb KerBoom]

By the way, Pilots, be sure to post a crash report if the plane goes into the drink or crashes. Please include the crewmember, the living/dead status of the crew, approximately where you crashed, what was left after the crash, if the crew bailed out or not, and how much was onboard.

[Millst0ne MK II]

I'm millst0ne on steam, if you want to add me, It'd make things a lot easier in regards to discussions like this. I'm going to get out for a walk in a few minutes though, so I'll download your plane when I get back, or tommorow if it's late. In regards to the crashing, I have a rescue blimp that i'm working on, should be able to grab up any poor kerbs that wind up in the drink, seeing as this looks like a lot of over water stuff.

[Millst0ne MK II]

Ok, downloaded that plane. Are you serious? I can't strap any cargo to that! I was under the impression you we're going to give me something that could haul a cart or bigtrack and stuff around. I can barely take off in your plane.

On the bright side, I've got my own plane design working, and I think it can carry some heavy loads.

[Millst0ne MK II]

Well, I've been busy the last few days, but I'm going to start looking for good places to land at those sites you chose. I'll get some pictures up once I get there.

[Saphira]

I dont mind being a pilot, I have alot of free time, I do nothing these days apart from school

[Millst0ne MK II]

Well, I'm sure Jeb Kerboom won't have any trouble with having you aboard. Do you have a working plane design? I'm not really sure exactly what Jeb wants us to be doing, but it'd be nice if you had a large plane that could actually carry heavy stuff, like carts and stuff.

[Jeb KerBoom]

Application accepted.

Welcome to the team.

[Jeb KerBoom]

Millst0ne, I need you to fly a small cart up to Eve Base, on the tiny island. Good luck with the brakes!

[Matticus88]

oooh ooh! can i play i've not actually joined in any of this sort of thing on the forum before, only don lorenzos campaign before he closed it down. I'm fairly handy at building planes, and the island youv'e got eve base on, i've landed there plenty of times

[Millst0ne MK II]

Small cart? As in, the min rover from Tosh? Ok. I'm on it. My Kyos 363 should be able to lift it, and stop in time to boot. I might have to get creative with unloading though

[Millst0ne MK II]

Ok, I have the cart with an attached mechjeb strapped to the roof of my plane. Now I don't need to waste time landing, I can just roll sideways and decouple the cart. It parachutes down and lands wheels up I just tested it outside KSC, and I'll fly it to Eve base as soon as I can. I gotta do some stuff right now (homework and all) but It should get done soon.

EDIT:

Crap, I flew too far away from the parachuting cart and it unloaded. Need to retry at a lower alt. I'll do it tommorow.

Post a crash report!

[Millst0ne MK II]

Oh, there was no crash report to say. The plane is fine, I returned to KSC and ended flight. However, an expensive remote controlled buggy was lost due to silly game coding that makes things dissapear inside the the atmosphere when you get 3 km away or something.

[RedDwarfIV]

Just calling from Veto Aerospace. We're sending our prototype Turbine class AWACS/AMS [Airbourne Muon Scanner] to what you refer to as 'Eve Base'. We hope you can receive it.

[images soon.]

[Millst0ne MK II]

Ok, great. Nice to see some better images of where we're expected to fly into.

[RedDwarfIV]

On course, heading set.

Nearing islands.

Recon begins.

Secondary island.

Banking turn.

On approach.

Gear down.

Prepared to land.

Touchdown.

Bogging down.

It didn't do that on the runway.

Gear up.

Gear down. Can barely see them they've sunk so far.

Satellite image - Eve Base from above, Turbine centred.

[RedDwarfIV]

Sadly, the prototype Turbine broke up after landing heavily and damaging its starboard landing gear.

No survivors.

[The Destroyer]

Ill be a pilot, if you want. just gimme a stable plane, and ill do it!

[maple51]

If you don't mind, I would like to join.

[Sherlock21st]

I would like to join, I can certainly fly for you.

By the way, will you be collaborating using Kessler or what?

P.S. I could use underwing-mounted hydraulics from Damned Robotics for dropoff of delicate supplies
