B-24 flying with no tail

[Pannono]

Earlier today I was messing around in the training arena trying to land planes on the water tower in town. My tail broke off on one attempt and I kept flying for more than 30 minutes. I got bored and started playing around and lost it after about 32 minutes or so.

I've flown an F4F without a tail and half a wing gone for a good minute or two before a Typh rammed me before. Pretty weird stuff happens in this game

I've heard a story about a pilot during FSO flying a TBM with its vertical stabilizer blown off. He said that opening  his bombbay somehow partially stabilized his aircraft, and with some careful flying he managed to bring it back home safely. Wish I had the film.
