hey yawl I know that I have been building some random crap for the last few days so I will give this kind of hard to land VTOL also I dare you to try to land this

History

the JF-9 was a VTOL project that the Americans made during the ww2 in the 1950s. the plane was very agile in dogfights and was very fast but it was given to some of the best naval pilots for the time because of the landings that were conducted

controls

normal controls ;)
Activation 8: gyro

in order to land the plane you will need to skim across the runway then pitch up 90 degrees and let the plane stall. as the plane starts to gain speed as it falls put the throttle to around 85 to 95% throttle and now you should start to descend slowly and once you get very near to the ground cut off the throttle
