3 ABOUT
The Panavia Tornado is a family of twin-engine, variable-sweep wing combat aircraft, which was jointly developed and manufactured by Italy, the United Kingdom, and West Germany. There are three primary Tornado variants: the Tornado IDS (interdictor/strike) fighter-bomber, the suppression of enemy air defences Tornado ECR (electronic combat/reconnaissance) and the Tornado ADV (air defence variant) interceptor aircraft.

    @TheChosenZebra You have to hold Lshift and then use W,A,S,D,Q,E to nudge the part around in small intervals. The thing that makes it so useful is the part still retains its interaction with what it was placed on when nudged, for example; if I placed a block on top of a rotator it would spin. simple.But then I could nudge just the rotator inside a fuselage piece or wherever so it didn't look like it was attached and that original block would still spin. That's how the wings and air-brakes work for this model. Hope that helps :)

    @Halfstrike it's the nudge feature on PC that really opens the box for building I think, I can't figure out much of the XML modding :L Hope you get your PC working :)
