This %100 mesh, paint-able 1930's model JU-52/3m Airliner has an advanced physics flight engine and performs like a real aircraft. Painstaking efforts were put into the creation of this plane to make it not only realistic, but fun to fly and reliable. This airliner comes complete with the following features:
• Easy to use paint and color system.
• Fully modifiable, some scripts in the plane are full perm. Many options can be changed using menus.
• Remote flying ability via HUD. Fly it from any seat or even standing on the ground.
• Includes 4 liveries that can be easily changed by chat-command (Lufthansa, Woodland Camo, German Officer / Immelmann II and Art Deco)
• Realistic flight physics and stalling.
• Working and usable dashboard instruments, switches and levers. Fly the plane in mouselook entirely or in third person.
• Seats 15 (pilot + 14 passengers).
• Detailed, shadowed interior with script-controlled bed.
• Celestial dome seat in the rear for a unique flying experience.
• Working flaps, elevators, ailerons, rudder, landing gear, doors lights, animated wheels and much more.
• Thoroughly tested for reliability, bugs, and usability.
• Scripted to handle region crossings well, even with passengers aboard.
• Dual-control cockpit controls: Share controls with your copilot if you choose and fly at the same time (not either-or).
• Guest, Group and Owner only pilot modes. Put your JU-52 on a rezzer if you wish for your airport guests or let a friend fly solo.
• "Boarding Mode" option completely locks the cockpit seats so passengers will take a rear seat by default when boarding the aircraft.
• Lock-able co-pilot seat.
• Optional fuel system with realistic fuel consumption.
• Advanced HUD can control plane from any seat or the ground using your mouse only. HUD includes optional instruments tied to the plane, not your avatar.
• HUD Tracks your landing scores (with averages), flight times and total hours flown.
• Intuitive chat-commands. The plane understands a command-set from a variety of manufacturers, not just CheerMaster commands.
• Dynamic braking on ground, air-braking in air.
CheerMaster is proud to present this plane to you and we have spent tedious hours making sure it's a reliable product that handles region crossings well. This plane runs on one 0.5 second timer which helps it to cross regions without "crashing" and makes the plane low-lag compared to other planes running on timers with 20 to 100 times that frequency rate (or more), and many with multiple timers even . Special attention was paid to keeping it a one, low-frequency timer plane so that it does not have issues with region crossings that many other planes can have.
If you hate how your camera messes up on region crossings or from passengers falling out or standing then this plane won't further infuriate you. The CheerMaster JU-52 was made to gracefully handle issues and errors caused by slow passenger connections and bad region crossings. Why ignore errors and situations you know are going to arise? We didn't, we want the plane to handle any adverse situations as gracefully as possible.
This plane banks and stalls similar to planes you may have flown in Grand Theft Auto or other games and was modeled to simulate games with this high-level of physics response. While this is a rather large aircraft you'll find it is fun to perform simple stunts while flying.
This plane has a detailed cockpit with functional instruments, lights, levers and switches that are easily seen in mouselook.You can completely control the plane in mouselook from takeoff to landing and without using the HUD if you wish, though it is hard to see over the dash in any tail-dragger when on the ground including this one.
Customize it! In addition to an easy-to-use paint and color system, this plane is modifiable and the plane can be controlled by script or Navigation HUD if interfaced. Detailed instructions on how to use the plane's program interface are included with the aircraft and you are encouraged to make this plane your own! Most of the scripts in this plane are full-perm (not the main flight engine) and can be tailored to your preferences or used as examples to create your own aircraft.
You will get free updates on this vehicle for life, including the military version with VICE and rear gunner, and a civilian and military version with floats when released.

One of the top planes on SL without a doubt
I was floored by this plane and I have them all. If there's a plane that's even remotely worth bying on SL, I have it, and this plane is one of the best, and likely flies the better than any other plane on Sl as far as I can tell, though that is a matter of opinion. This plane crosses into new regions very well no matter what other people have said in previous reviews, I think some people don't understand that some region crossings will be bad for any plane, boat or car, and blame the plane instead. I have a slower PC and my internet is ok but not great, and the only region crossing issues I've had in this plane were due to region issues and not plane issues or number of prims. Please don't remove the color tinting customization and I'm not sure how the previous poster think that adds to the prim count. A side note on that, this plane is mod, so if you think it has too many prims (even though it states the prim count right on the listing) then remove some!
I KNOW planes on SL, and i can't think of another plane that flies as well as this one physics-wise. The interior looks amazing by any standard, and I've had no issues with the instruments and like the fact that I can use the HUD instruments in mouselook and they still work properly, as I have a smaller screen. Anyone giving this plane less than a five star review knows little about planes in RL or SL and probably has other motivations for doing so. This plane is as reliable as they come and fun to fly and learn to master. I would say that the physics of this plane are more advanced than the normal plane as it picks up speed when you dive, loses speed when you climb and stalls, the controls get more sensitive that faster the plane goes, and the flaps dampen the steering of the plane just like RL. The sounds on this plane are beyond fantastic and innovative, I particularly enjoyed hearing the wind buffet against the flaps the further I drop them down and the brakes squeal when I stop.
GREAT DEAL
This plane is a great plane to fly. Thank you for making this plane it have great sounds and looks nice. I have no trouble painting this plane and is the first plane I think of when I want to fly. I am real pilot in live and this plane give the same feeling of flying and in mouse look view. GREAT!
Wonderful plane, amazing price and features
What a wonderful airplane! I was amazed at all of the options it has especially for the interior which you don't normally see, like to tint the seats and bed and pillows and such by using menus (I'm artistically challenged, lol). I am extremely picky and only fly the best planes in Second Life and I just can't believe how well this plane flies, and at such a low price I'm just speechless! Even if you are a fan of the more modern planes like Dani Airplanes you are really going to enjoy this plane. The dashboard is one of the prettiest I've seen and the interior is one you can be proud to take your passengers along for a ride in. If you do not have this plane you are truly missing out. This is coming from likely the pickiest pilot on the Blake Sea (me, lol) and from someone who normally only flies passenger jets.
wow!!!
when i first saw the price of this plane i was quite skeptical, but i'm blown away by the customization options, features and physics. the plane stalls like a real plane and has some unique features not seen in other planes. i've already put several hours on this plane (it keeps stats on your flight times and total flight hours) and i just keep wanting to practice flying it more. the cameras seemed to work fine for me and i really liked the auto-camera features it has. anyone that leaves less than 5 stars on this plane is either having a colossally bad day, or is likely an alt of a competitor. i mean....really. this plane sets a new standard.
Can I Give 10 Stars?
Nice work! Thank you for making such a great product! I love how it flies realistically and crosses sims so well.
