Looking for pictures of Jebediah's Plane

Post by **SirMildred** » Sat Nov 30, 2002 7:43 am

Hi, I am creating a copy of Jebediah's JL-12 (from Beyond Thunderdome) for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002. I need pictures of the plane as shown in the film and was wondering if anyone could email me some. There is a great picture on the website, but it's only one picture from one side of the plane. I would like pictures of the port side, the top side, and if possible the bottom side too. I'll be making this plane available for download for any flight simmer who has a copy. Thanks in advance! email me at [url]mailto:[email protected][/url][email protected] if you can help. thanks a lot

Mildred,

Keep us informed as well. You know, there is a close friend of mine very very found for airplanes and real/virtual plane models - so much experienced - and he absolutely loves the Transaviar model showed in THUNDERDOME. So ask him more pictures:

His name is SIMONE and the mail address is:

[url]mailto:[email protected][/url]

Tell him that you received the address straight from my mouth, I'm UNCLE ENTITY (TIZIANO). He will understand!

It would be nice if the model could be downloaded from my MAD MAX 3 site:

Just let me know, it sounds cool...

Another thing: It's JEDEDIAH, not JEBEDIAH. And please, name your model with his name!

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll forward a note along to your friend whne I finish the model. The plane is so fun to fly, and even more fun to repaint

that I ended up doing most of the work already. You can see the mostly finished product here: http://www.flightsimnetwork.com/dcforum ... 16402.htmlhttp://www.flightsimnetwork.com/dcforum ... 16402.html ... On the subject of Jedediah v. Jebediah. I didn't trust myself to spell either, so I copied and pasted it directly from the website here at madmaxmovies.com, who spells is Jebediah. I looked for independent confimation, and checked at http://www.imbd.comwww.imbd.com, but they spell it Jedediah! Could it be the foremost authority on the Mad Max Movies flubbed it? I hope he fixes it!

Mildred,

Oh sh*t! The plane model is friggin' awesome... the polygonal structure seems pretty nice to me. You're truly a Thunderdome fan, so can't do it wrong... I'm sure the simulation will be mind-blowing. Loved the Wasteland scenario in the background. Please, when it would be the right time, let me know where you will place the whole ' thing' online. I will link the page in my site, sure as hell

Hey, just a suggestion... during the simulation, the plane could overfly Bartertown (can you built a marginal Thunderdome arena figure through a bunch of raw polygons?) It would be cool... cooler than everything else!

Let me know. See ya in the Transaviar... hey, we're overloaded!

Ouch, I forget it:

Thunderdome is filled with tons of double-edged names... "Jed" is supposed to be an American bird.

Exellent work SirMildred ,I cant believe how close your model is. If it flys half as good as it looks thats an amazing achievment ,I would love a copy of that flight model when it is finished !

Hi

There seems to be a bit of intrest in this plane so if anyone out there wants to see one for real theres one hanging up in the powerhouse museum in Sydney.On the plaque below the plane it mentions that it is the same type used in thunderdome.
