How to make planes fly?

IRL? If you were down in the Philly area, I could teach you!
But, in Trainz, you can generally build a "track" out of invisible track, then elevate it to the required altitude. You may need to place a leg of track that decends to ground level in order to place train-planes, or temporarily elevate a chunk of ground to do the same.
Are you talking in the context of flying planes in trainz?

Or play some FFL3. The Talon is a good flying machine, and a good time traveling machine as well. :hehe:
My boy, I do not even know what this "FFL3" is.
I realize it isn't FSX, which I have. It is as if I want to see some beauty highballing and want to see it from the air.

I lay track, then elevate it several hundred feet in the air, then watch my Trainz running from airplane cockpit the air ... I have several airports all over my routes, and travel to/from them.
If static rockets laid down on their sides, and you put an attachment bogey on the side of the rocket or missile ... you could make them fly almost straight up from -3000m to + 3000m n nearly vertical invisatrack.
I prefer BNSF50 Invisatrack for planes, cars and trucks

FFL3 = Final Fantasy Legend III. That's what that stands for.
Hi All,
I've made a couple of planes in the past to be used in Trainz. The best use I have found recently is aerial invisible track is a good way to showcase your route. You can run the aerial track in such a way that everywhere is covered and then use a helicopter to fly the route and see everything. The Ashland Central System route does that and I enjoyed touring the route in a helicopter to see everything they had done. Well done guys.

Aerial Flyways are best kept below @ 300' as any higher, your Trainz below, look too miniature
Use invisible speed limit asset some are as high 300kmh.
I do use these. Picture the situation: Once the plane is on the ground, it has to taxi to the terminal, and for this you set the invisible speed limiter to about 40Km/h. Now the plane (Flying) sees the speed limit at bout 1 Km distance, and slows down to near that speed! It is unrealistic...
Yeah. If it is an AI plane, but if you take over, you can go as fast as you want!
