Auto Credit Based on Typhoon03's Flycatcher S-1/STOL
A VR-era update of the good ol' Flycatcher, with a full VR cockpit somewhat-based off the existing version by @BagelPlane. This aircraft is an excellent short-takeoff and landing aircraft and is suitable for all terrains that I've so far encountered in-game. This aircraft is my go-to choice for any short-field gameplay - indeed, the VR modifications have reduced the part count and made the aircraft somewhat lighter, further enhancing its performance.

It just dawned on me that the original came out 4 years ago. This plane is dated lol.
Man, I'm glad to see this plane still being flown and updated. You've taken the part count down by almost a 100 pieces, and reduced the performance cost! I love how the cockpit was able to be simply switched out for the new instrument parts. When I've got some downtime I ought to start a 100% from-scratch updated version; new instruments, fuselage smoothing, and glass all to be included.
i see stol plane
i upvote stol plane
I'll try it out in my headset later
@Typhoon03 ok, I'll credit you and him
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 You can use this one for sure, just remember to credit the right people
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 Yep, I just got his permission to turn it into a STOL aircraft
@Typhoon03 the only downside is that the original isn't as maneuverable
@Typhoon03 oh, I didn't realize that there was an original
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 I'd prefer if you based it off Bagel's original tbh, he deserves all the credit
I don't mind if you use this one though!
Nice, can I make this into a stunt plane
