Auto Credit Based on Rohan's Boeing & McDonnell Douglas Challenge

The Boeing Bird of Prey was a black project aircraft, intended to demonstrate stealth technology. It was developed by McDonnell Douglas and Boeing in the 1990s. The company provided $67 million of funding for the project; it was a low-cost program compared to many other programs of similar scale.

Tips: Recommend, high or at least med settings. Slow to lift off for some reason but will do so at end of either runway. Also, realized that I forgot air brakes so add them if you're going to try and land.

    @Gelodicus that has something to do with it though I think you'll find that even if you move the gear, lift off is still slow, believe it has to do with the wing panels on the body.

    Slow to lift off because the main gear is too far from the com
