Near the end of the Great War, plans and some prototype parts were found for a massive German aircraft rumored to have been intended as a long range bomber or transport. It was designed by Villehad Forssman and while the craft was never completed, it was used in an episode of The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones (yeah, there was an Indy TV show, you're welcome) The plane was meant to be massive, the front landing wheels (one of which was built) were 7 feet in diameter.
This plane is actually fairly stable, though with a slight dipping of the nose. Fly it as you would any basic plane. It even lands smoothly. Please rate/comment and let me know what you think.

Not bad, the only minor downside is that it does require some nose-up trim to fly level or climb for for than a brief moment.
