    @DimitriIqbal91 I am not a fan of custom cockpits. Some do a brilliant job here, but if I really wanted to see detailed cockpits, I'd pick a game like DCS or some other, rather then SIMPLE planes...

    Which to note, they have released an F-14 addon.. Pretty cool one

    I really love your plane, it's still look nice even though without custom cockpit. Keep it up dude :)

    @Jokowi thanks for your request - I will try to make it, however I will probably release it in a few days... got plenty of remakes coming up xD

    I was playing around with it and I made it fly way better. All you need to do is move the CoM forward of the CoL and add more wing area. You can do that by adding xml scaled wing to the aircraft. I’d say that 400ft^2 should be enough overall

    @Mustang51 I admit it isn't the most maneuverable of my works, however the weight balance and power ratio can be that tiny bit tricky without making the plane break the laws of physics xD

    & thanks for the critique ;)

    This one looks really great but the flight characteristics could definitely be improved
