The CAC Boomerang was a World War II fighter aircraft designed and manufactured in Australia between 1942 and 1945. The Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation produced Boomerangs under the production contract numbers CA-12, CA-13, CA-14 and CA-19, with aircraft supplied under each subsequent contract incorporating modifications and improvements. The Boomerang is significant as the first combat aircraft designed and built in Australia.
Notes: Extremely hard to fly! I can't quite figure a way to get it to fly right...

@rexzion yeah it doo doo ik
wtf
@ESIOTROT121 never heard of it actually
@LouisEP lol I still got two notifications anyway
Oops... I meant @MrSilverWolf
@MerSilverWolf yep :)
@LouisEP that's awesome
I've seen one of these at the Point Cook air museum.
@MrSilverWolf IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW
@Shmexysmpilot yeah like the name suggests, instead of it coming back to a person it comes back to the ground lol. (yeah that was a terrible joke)
@Shmexysmpilot yeah it is its favorite thing, it used to be spins lol, before I started playing with the weight it really liked flat spins lol
@MrSilverWolf yeah, stalling seems to be one of its favorite things to do
@Shmexysmpilot lol I got it to fly straight but if you did anything like roll or pitch it would just go full up stall and go straight down and it would do the same thing every time you tried to pull out of that dive, and on landing it likes to do what I just said and it also like to bounce and then stall, roll over and blow up in a big giant explosion...
@MrSilverWolf yeah lol. I just cheated and put dead weight in the front And it made it fly strait, but tanked the maneuverability so flying strait was about all it did lol
@Shmexysmpilot I did that and it just wasn't having any of it lol.
Cool. And to fix the performance problems you just needed to move the CoM forward a bit
@MrSilverWolf Thanks
Nice!
@Gmanndo1000 yeah I kind of forgot about doing that, sorry, I'll see if I can get it to work though
Good job! Still considering the Ac-119?
