• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Stealth, the movie

Mad Matt

The Airplane in the Movie Stealth was based on a design by Mad Matt: The Hollywood artists spiffed it up quite a bit. I remember I only had 1 day to do the drawings of this plane for the patent so it did not have very much detail. The objective of the design was just to create something in order to patent the switch blade wing concept.

I did the drawings for this when I worked at Northrop in the Aircraft Design Group.

I was just looking around and it's kewl to see it has taken on a life of it's own. There are several posts in R/C model groups about this Northrop switchblade. I was just reminded of it this morning when I got an email from my wife's uncle with pictures of the plane saying it is a new Navy prototype, which it is not of course. It's funny to see all the public mis-information.

Mad Matt :D
 
Very Cool,Mad Matt! Can you do a drawing up with a Spyder having retractable swept-back wings??(If you produce it,I'll fly it!):2thumbs:

I always find these funny. I found a UFO website once with a bunch of pictures of airplanes I have designed. They got them all from the USPTO website. Apparently I have been colaborating with aliens, according to the website.
