    Woah, Richard Dean Anderson plays SimplePlanes?? lol
    .
    If so, I can't wait to see the USS General Hammond, or an F-102!


    Jokes aside (unless you really are -that- RDA...)
    I'll have to download this just to see just how fast that thing is with four massive BFE300s... :D
    EDIT: Yep, it was fast lol Though it has its quirks, too... Or perhaps more accurately, a bit of a learning curve for flying it. I had to switch it over to Throttle instead of VTOL input (as a computer user) and that helped. As then I was able to associate a % value to a level of thrust needed.
