There was great joy in SAPP land tonight!
« on: April 26, 2010, 11:58:33 PM »
It flies with both wingtips and ailerons missing!  Couldn't do that before.  Some guy chased me halfway across the map to kill me before I could try and land it, so there is still testing to be done.  But it's a good sign! :)

Got a video of me landing a B-17 after flying a sector with only halve of each wing.   :airplane:

In the name of decreasing drag and increasing aerodynamic efficiency, all 38's should henceforth be clipped as such.

The next step is to put the hinges in place before replacing the outer wing and adding arresting hooks,  thus rendering the P-38G CV worthy.

That's an excellent point, they couldn't land... but then again I never do either. :)
