[Please scroll down for instructions, I forgot the in game ones because I was having too much fun with cutting]
So, a remake of my very first post, how original. At a glance it doesn't resemble it at all, but certain aspects of it resemble that of the Original, such as the air scoop, Razorback and several others. Anyways, enjoy or.....
I will trap you in an abandoned toy factory

WW2 Aircraft

The SP-38 "Warfighter" was the second aircraft by the WRAF to have an all metal steel frame. It is also the first to adapt retractable landing gear among its fellow WRAF Monoplanes. It was among the first to score kills when the Tripartite attacked and was by far the most produced airplane of the WRAF. Of course, it wasn't perfect, initially it used a carburettor engine which was not good for 0g manuevers, this would be rectified later of course. Tho eventually it would be overshadowed by its younger brother, the SP-51, it is nonetheless one of the most celebrated fighters of its time. A unit costs for about 9,700$ (1937 inflation)

Instructions:

Normal flight controls
Toggle Both fuel pump and Engine switches to activate the engine
VTOL for flaps
Ag 1 for supercharger, Ag2 to open the canopy

    Ah. Rather difficult to press on a small screen, I’ll pull this up on a computer later and try it out.

    @Awsomur those are not action groups, they are the switches found in the cockpit dashboard

    Interested in flying this plane, but can’t figure the engine controls. You said “Toggle Both fuel pump and Engine switches to activate the engine” but didn’t say which activation groups those are.

    Flies beautifully. Acceleration is very smooth, and I love the addition of a fuel pump switch. Overall, 8.5/10.
