The Avro Liberator was a canvas-covered sea-based heavy bomber used in World War 1 when the British wanted a heavy bomber to bomb German U-Boats. Avro (this is fictional) made the Liberator, it carried 20 12.5 pounds bombs on each side and can take off from small and large ports, including Dover. However, the heavy bomber boasted a huge tail meaning that the rear gunner couldn't directly shot back if confronted. Many Liberators were shot down because of this flaw.

*100% Throttle, trim up
*85mph Pitch up, and let the plane rotate
*90mph V1, Plane rotates at 92mph, V2 at 95mph
*Climb at 10 degrees

*Touch at 85mph, and turn Ag1 on to steer

Controls:

Note:

Please do not use the gunner to make another plane, as much as it is a W.I.P. It is not officially out yet. Failing to do so may have consequences.

Happy Flying!
