Auto Credit Based on Bob06's F-5 Single engine

Miniature F-5. Fast straight and level. Be weary of high G turns, especially ones from one direction to the other, as the plane will stall one wing or the other. Any aileron input will increase the stall and place you in a spin. Good looking airplane with some instabilities. Please feel free to attempt improving on this design for increased stability.
