Auto Credit Based on Wormforce's Nostalgia Challenge

Please, before you say "Woah, that thing is awesome," let me explain. When I first got SimplePlanes, I used alot of stock planes. Then, I wanted my own, so I spent around 1 week and 2-3 hours a day building this. I consulted alot of internet, and had to change everything every three seconds to make this plane work. I hope you enjoy! (Yes, this plane works!) ~Epyx out

    @Wormfoce thanks! At the time, I was thinking 'What a waste of time this is. Three hours and it still won't fly....' it stunk building this.
