Fixed a few issues that stopped the plane from flying. it can now breath so doesnt stall. Has enough wing to be able to fly flat, has a working pitch and roll, didnt fix yaw but you have enough vertical stabilization now for it to fly straight. Cool build

    @LittleJerry I'm happy to work on it to make it stable / finished but that's not what you asked for initially

    @JeffChandler agreed it's still a WIP for the original builder, assume nose undercarriage and cockpit will be way forward of current CoM thus aiding weight distribution. As it came it was tail heavy and asthmatic with no wing in the wing and no effective tail.
