VERSAILLES
Today is a historic day for TerraSpace, as we have successfully landed the Versailles aircraft "MACH MISTRESS" she is the last of the VERSAILLES fleet, The Versailles Has Run for 2 Years in our fleet now, its time to retire our Faithful Bird. For it is time for anew.
Today she completed a flight from KSC to Vandenburg, and then back to KSC, both flights had successfull landings and the pilot of the versailles was brought back to the Astronaut Center by a specialized crew Retreaval vehicle.
this was an emotional flight for me, even if it was just a game fighter jet i made, it was the best ive ever made, it was also one of my first, no succedding aircraft has been built, as none have ever managed to match the sheer engineering i somehow managed to use to build it, even if it was a game, the flight from KSC to Vandenburg and back, took just over 2 and a half hours to complete its final trip.
The Reason VERSAILLES was my best ever fighter, is because at the time of its completion, i was in a period of my juno work, where i felt it was necissary to take the monumentally challenging (at the time for me) leap, to switch to aircraft building aswell as continuing my work on rockets, at the time i built the CH3 (my first operational aircraft) i had no idea how to make an aircraft in the game, after some reasearch, it suddenly became possible for me to make them, and make them well.
I APPRECIATE YOU ALL
truly i miss the good old days before i discovered the tinker panels full capabilities, because it actually challenged me to build what i thought was impossible for me, when i got to the moon and much later (2 years after) mars, it was a monumental moment that i celebrated for days after, telling my family of it, and even buying a freaking t-shirt relating to my mars shot.
it was a truly amazing time in juno, and i miss those times in juno dearly.
but im monumentally lucky to have you all support me with my creations, it truly, truly, means the world.
not many people believe in my real world work, let alone my creations in juno, and its truly an amazing thing to have you all support what i do.
i will never be able to truly describe how i feel about you all.
but i put it best understood in my quote:
I have millions of words to say, but not 1 word to say it.
You all mean the world to me, thank you all dearly for your belief in my work. and i hope it all brings smiles to your faces.
my next post will be related to my moon shot again.
(Hopefully)
at the back of the VERSAILLES, i put 3 engines in UK flag Colours to celebrate my Home nation, and i hope you get the chance to try them out :).
Thank You Lads.
