Auto Credit Based on BaconEggs's free fuselage and nose parts

Produced with the kind permission of BaconAndEggs96 this is my first tanker plane and the first tanker plane in SP I think. I have tried really hard to make it look sleek and realistic. Take-off is very hard for some reason that the front wheel turns the plane, If anyone knows how to fix this I would be thankful. Low speed performance is great when useing the flaps (yaw) and trim act3 and vtol slider and front gear up by act1 and for fuel hose act2 and vtol slider. Please rate and comment

    This is pretty cool! But work on the gear. I'll make a free rear landing gear part. Otherwise this is awesome!
