    @Wahoo12 Nope, then it's the inverse sine.

    When it flies backwards is it the Ship-of-cosine?

    @DragonAerotech I don't add landing gear unless the plane won't take off without it (as on Raider II), because it ruins the screenshots - the gears available are too ugly, and the game doesn't provide an option to retract them for screenshot mode.

    Silencing engines is very easy. You'll need to either edit the XML directly in a code editor, or use Overload XML.

    If using Overload XML: Click on an engine, and under InputController set max to 0.25. Now under Engine, set powerMultiplier to 4. This will give you an engine with the same power as an unmodded engine, but quieter. To increase the power, just increase the powerMultiplier. For instance, if you need a silent engine with power 30, set max to 0.25 and powerMultiplier to 120.

    If editing the XML directly, just set the above attributes in the code.

    @BrianAircraftsNew It reminds me of the moustache of the Bard, from Asterix.

    @Shmexysmpilot :) Now I'm going to wait for you to figure out that 'Ship of Sine' is a play on 'Ship of sin.'
