AeroSport Jackal

5,610 AeroSportIndustries  1.8 years ago

The Jackal was designed by the civilian aircraft company Aerosport and marketed as a "Fast Pleasurecraft." Offering high speed, decent manueverability, and sleek, modern looks, the Jackal was a success as soon as it hit the market. It wasnt particularly easy to fly but it wasnt hard either, making it a good choice for mid-skill pilots. It was renowned for both its high speed and ability to cruise at low speeds. However, the plane proved itself difficult to land, its narrow gear making it tend to roll over in rough landings or with crosswinds. Due to concerns over safety lawsuits, the Jackal was discontinued, although numerous privately owned aircraft are still flying today.

It is recommended that you land with the wings as level as possible and under 220 mph. The gear can take a hard landing but landing crooked will have disastrous consequences. Instructions are, well, in the instructions.
