Auto Credit Based on niggelas100's Pioneer Challenge
I don't know if this aircraft will count for the Pioneer Challenge but i decided to enter it anyways.
History: This aircraft was built by Curtiss Aeroplane and Motor company. It was flown by Jimmy Doolittle, who went on to fly a mission where they flew B-25's off of a carrier.
For Water Takeoff: Key 1, Full up elevator (I had to add a few jets to make it fly to scale).
Let me know what I could of done better!
