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.

In test perfect and Good plaine manny hours i will test it with al love and pleassure Michelle Mrsfaith silverfall
The test wil go over the black sea manny times and i love this plain the nice stairways the totall looks verry good and simple good hud with instruments that al function good . manny thx fore this offer .
Can I give it 6 stars?
The best! No doubt about it. I had a friend of mine tell me about this and I decided to take a chance and this was so worth it and then some. A gem to fly, easy to handle, beautiful sounds and a breeze to land. This plane became one of my favorites on the first flight. The textures are easy to mod even for a novice like me, adding some more historically accurate features. Bottom line is that you get this plane, you are not going to go wrong.
Sensational! \o/
Damn life, pay 189 lindens by a plane so amazing in every way, and still in BETA mode, remove a review star is bizarre!
Place your criticism, or rather opinions, criticize it's ridiculous, but keep the 5 stars and respect this wonderful work.
Should I remove a star because I am struggling to learn to take off? LOL
Should I remove a star because it has no manual in my language?
What do you think to read the manual to learn everything more calm?
I point out to collectors ... this aircraft is one of the relics that will be part of the history of SL.
I'll wait with joy, upgrade consisting VICE version. ;-)
Awesome aircraft at an amazing price.
This is a great way for beginners to get their feet wet as well as for experienced pilots to enjoy the sky in second life. She handles great and the final result once the plane is out of beta should be a plane you are proud to own. 5 stars for absolutely a great effort already.
Incredible value, even assuming the list price will be perhaps $1890, still a good if not great value.
I have to agree with KippieMontaine though, there are some things that aren't quite ready for 5-stars, but it is very close. The cockpit glass frames are very clumsy, glass would also help.
Of note is it has 2-bladed props (they are seen in RL with 2 and 3-bladed props).
A really nice touch is that the doors open the correct way (the most popular JU-52 has the front door opening backwards), and the auto deploying stairs are also a nice touch.
I appreciate that this builder is offering this aircraft at such an attractive price to get Beta version feedback. And the release notes shows that she is really advancing the plane. I think very few build alterations it could be a 5-star.
Awesome Plane!
this is the second item i've bought from here and have been blown away. awesome creator!
