    @AJosh92FS don't worry, you're not the only one to have that issue haha. In this case it was deliberate to reflect the unstable nature of the Cariburn in the games, but if you want to make it easier to fly, stick a little bit of dead weight in the nose.

    nicely done sir but unfortunately the handling is a bit (sorry) bad... tried to nose down and it will do a non stoppable forward roll.. haha
    still, nicely done replica (I played the game ACX too :) )

    @Liquidfox alright, I had a look, I'll add it to the list of stuff to be done. No guarantees about when it will be done, though, I'm not much good at uploading regularly :/

    @TheStapler the intake stopped me from doing this one for a long time too, the eventual solution came when I realised that i could make the big scoop on the front a false one. The central section of it is made from structural panels instead of fuselages, and those don't block the air to the real intake behind it. Also sorry it took nearly a fortnight to respond, I must have missed the notification.

    @Liquidfox thank you!

    This was next on my list after my xfa27, but you've done it already! I was having hassle with intake placement. Looks great

    @MediocrePlanes it's alright, I saw it! I'm just out at the rugby just now, so I can't test. It looks good, though
