From hybrid spaceplanes to many normal planes people will want to build, many things require aircraft engines. Learn more about the jet engines on our post here.

    Really enjoying the jet engines! Working on a runway-takeoff spaceplane now.

    Stepping more into the realm of sci-fi, how about engines that breathe CO2 or methane atmosphere? For example, burning magnesium powder with CO2 (thick black "contrails"?)

    1) Turbines - designer chooses bypass ratio and other parameters
    2) ramjets
    3) scramjets
    4) fuel tanks will need a parameter for volume ratio of kerosene to LOx if some engines suck their oxygen from outside.

    Make the exhaust of jets that way so they blur things near it
    Look at the pic, the wings and stabilizers look blurred because heated air moves up, and they diffuse together and blur the image. It's like you light the match and watch the air flow.

    Is it possible To add a blurred affect to items on the end of a motor? Because that would take care of props and look very good on many other things @AndrewGarrison

    @Chancey21 No, this task is just for the jet engines. Which, really, they are just prop engines in tubes.

    Does “aircraft engines” entail props?

    make one jet engine
    and have these customization in it, if you want!

    *to be resizable maybe make the power changeable according to the size
    so you don't have a 10 cm jet engine with the power to that of an F-22 engine
    yet that will be XML edited anyways ...

    *thrust vectoring on/off

    *maybe add a few nozzle shape customization?maybe not?

    *by the existing of the jet engine we'll need inlets
    I don't what I want but I'll definitely want to see something new in the customization of the inlets

    and thanks for all the great games mainly SimplePlanes
    and SimpleRockets
    plus the great Simple Rocket 2
