EA Model Plane for Surfaces

SCREENSHOTS
I noticed in my game today there was this humongous plane sculpture. I thought that something like that isn't very practical for residential lots, so I scaled it down and made it placeable on all surfaces. The textures are the same as EA, except for the specular, which I thought was way too shiny (never been a fan of the shiny EA objects). The poly counts are lower than EA's version. The plane has two recolorable areas. First channel are the grey parts, second channel are the red parts. This is found in decorative/misc. and costs 90 simoleons. I didn't make this a default replacement, because I think the big version can be useful for museums, and Air Force bases and things.
Another color choice can be seen in the thumbnail.

This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.

Install Instructions
Quick Guide:
1. Click the file listed on the Files tab to download the file to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file. Now you will have either a .package or a .sims3pack file.
For Package files:
1. Cut and paste the file into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages folder. If you do not already have this folder, you should read the full guide to Package files first: Sims 3:Installing Package Fileswiki, so you can make sure your game is fully patched and you have the correct Resource.cfg file.
2. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
For Sims3Pack files:
1. Cut and paste it into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads folder. If you do not have this folder yet, it is recommended that you open the game and then close it again so that this folder will be automatically created. Then you can place the .sims3pack into your Downloads folder.
2. Load the game's Launcher, and click on the Downloads tab. Find the item in the list and tick the box beside it. Then press the Install button below the list.
3. Wait for the installer to load, and it will install the content to the game. You will get a message letting you know when it's done.
4. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.

Creations by joninmobile (TheNinthWave)
I'm officially, permanently retired from creating at MTS, however I do create for my own website TheNinthWaveSims.com. I no longer take requests. If you send me a request in pm, I will kindly decline. However, if you would like to make a request from another creator you may do so. Here are the links to The Sims 2 Creators who take requests and The Sims 3 Creators who take requests. Don't post in those threads, simply PM the creators who posted there. Don't steal my creations, other than that, do whatever you want.
I hope you enjoy all the downloads I've brought to you over the years. It's been fun. Being a part of The Sims community has had it's ups and downs for me, but I keep on truckin' nonetheless. Lots and lots of drama, lots of pain and sorrow, but lots of laughs, and good times too. Made so many new friends over the years, and it all started by uploading to MTS way back in 2006. Have fun with my creations, that's what they're here for!
