I am very happy :D

It is good to see the folks at HTC cranking out this beautiful air machine.

Are there any other details about the next release?

You might have to reaload/refresh the page first. I guess you are still looking at cached version.

Are they going to model the CG problems which caused it to flat spin rather easly. And was even more pronounce after it fired it's ammo, creating an even worse CG problem. Or am I thinking of a different plane.

You can search "P39Q" and find quite a few of the older discussions on the plane, and probably the Wiki and various other links to information.

From what   I read it was only a problem when zero ammo was carried.  The weight of the empty shells was enough to resolve the issue..
