Due to complexity, maybe divert to one or two smaller projects, from time to time, just to take breaks.472624726347264

The Northrop XB-35 Flying Wing bomber? Definitely a peculiar plane.
Looking good!

Cheers,

Excellent choice !!
Although the landing gear look terrible (in real life, I mean), that plane is trully a beauty. Good luck for the next steps :)

And what are those "side-projects" by the way ? ;)

Excellent work Tim. BTW, do you use 3DS Max or gmax now?

To quote Wayne's World "We're not worthy! We're not worthy!" I love Northrop wings and Piglet you keep bringing my loves to life in FS! :jump: Maybe one of those side projects is a N-9MB? Probably not, that is hoping for too many wings. :icon_lol:

love it! I feel that the "X" planes and in general prototype/proof of concept aircraft are poorly represented in FSX...Great job for tackling this one!

Dang, was hoping for the jet version. But props are okay, too, I guess.

As a flying Wing aficionado, thanks!!! I can't wait to see this painted up in various WW2 bomber colors.

Great! I am happier with the prop version. I understand that speed asside, the prop version handled much better. And hat the design was not originally developed for jet engines.

just wondering tim

are you going to do the civil airliner version as well or nay?

From one of the original test pilots, "Just don't stall it!" :d

I'm really looking forward to this project developing, Tim, it already looks stunning! I have had a fond interest in this and other designs of the genius known as Jack Northrop. This will be a great companion to your N-9MB and XP-56 as well!

Tim: Do you have a copy of "Northrop Flying Wings", by Garry Pape, 1995, Schiffer Publishing. If not - run (not walk) and get a copy! I certainly hope that you complete this famous aircraft. Bill

I do fly your N-9MB once in awhile, but I like the XB-35 better.

I have been waiting for one of these.

Oh, that looks sweet, Tim! So glad you're doing that one!

(And personally, I'm happy it's the prop version! We can use it in both an extended WW2 and Korea. Hmm, a COIN B-35 in Vietnam might be a bit much, though... : )
