fixed some balance issues the previous upload had. "The A-226 Aquila (Latin for Eagle) is a light attack aircraft with a novel tandem pilot layout. The primary pilot sits on the left and has a gunsight and rocket sight, while the pilot on the right operates a radio tracking system, allowing for ground troops to pinpoint enemy targets and guide the A-226 in for attack. For attack there are two rocket launch tube sets containing 7 rockets each for a total of 14. To improve performance, the rocket launch tubes can be jettisoned(AG 1). A single pair of .50caliber machine guns are located in the wings for attacking soft targets. the aircraft is powered by a 510 HP 6 cylinder air cooled lycoming engine driving a 3 blade prop. cockpit fully detialed. enjoy."
