I tried taking off the CV, the problem is not that the CV is not long enough the problem is that it physically does not fit.

As taking off again is not an option anyway, I think it doesn't matter much that I wrecked my prop #4 in the process ;)

By the way, next time the complaint "Our CVs are too small, the real ones were bigger" comes up again, I think I will just post this picture  :D

First try. Ain't difficult at all. No bombs, 25% fuel, full flaps and you can hover in quite slowly

As you can see, I came in a tad too high. Could certainly do better next time.

First try.  It was actually easier than you might think, you just have to make sure you set her down as early as possible.  You need as much room as you can to get all that weight to stop.

I was opposite, I actually came in a little low and had to give her throttle at the end, didn't have much room to spare here though:

EDIT: I didn't like the big blue hole on the waist gun, It needed something else.  :D

I thought the reasons he was not on that list is because he was your gunner?

I rather think they still need one out of seven to do some work in the office, while the others merrily fly in circles  :noid
