Ask a plane builder something!

@Livingg017 How r ya? Been making spaceships and planets for a while. Haven't Heard from you so how's It been ?

@Livingg017 glad to hear man, live long and prosper

@Sansu in real life they can make an engine provide 130% its thrust while making it consume more than twice what they do without it (twice is an aproximated minimum, the number is usually higher)

@Sansu to be honest my aircraft arent the most fuel efficient, but i discovered that by having oversized engines allows you to have a greater output power when not using an afterburner while still drinking a reasonable fuel amount. for example you can take the J-01, my trainer plane which is supersonic without afterburner: it does drink much fuel but not a problem, using an afterburner would have been horrible for consumption, even in a smaller engine. To get a view of how much the afterburner increases consumption you can check the HF-01S in any version you want: lower the fuel quantity as much as you can (leave 2 ton or similar) and try it with full afterburner and another time but now at 70 percent throttle, compare the range of the aircraft and how fast it was flying and you will conclude that aferburner is the main problem for efficiency on fighter planes

@Aludra877 why are you asking it? yeah im well i guess

Hey man, you ok?

How do you get planes to stop wasting fuel instead of making the fuel tank bigger

@LeMagicBaguette i was bored and rockets were too difficult do make properly. i started with pretty bad builds, honestly im not very proud of some of them (SimpleSabre and Stepback 1), and thats why they never got remodels. you can find a small text about my trajectory in my description if you are interested

Why did you start building them?
