* Detailed Cockpit

* Propeller with 5 blades

* Retractable three-wheeled landing gear assembly

* Swing bar acting on the tail and the caster of nose.

* Aelirons

* Stabilizer, with adjustment of the trim

Perfection in a technic plane, and just different Moc, that it's no easy in this times..

Thanks to Dluders and to Khan!! I'm sorry but i don't have Setechnic account and i can't say it in the french forum!

Every Airplane made of LEGO Technic makes my day although I am more a jet fighter fan. I would love to see it in action.

On this TechnicBRICKS post, Conchas wrote a nice article and posted a VIDEO of Khan's Pilatus PC-21 Training Airplane's functions. It even has two ejector seats!

The video makes a good looking plane an awesome MOC... Well I am in a process of building of another jet fighter and one of the coolest things I wanted to have is a working ejection seat. Khan has two of them.

That looks brilliant!

[parda]

The video is fantastic, and the moc has several functions <3

Came across this MOC on Rebrickable, must say it's quite a beauty. It's slighty different than the version posted by DLuders though: http://rebrickable.com/mocs/khan/pilatus-pc-21.

Trying to get the parts together right now, some of those rigid hoses are hard to find.
