Flight Recommendations

-For takeoff, set throttle to 75%-85%, trim to 1/2 down, flaps down all the way, and pitch up slowly after airspeed reaches 400 km/h(250mph)
-During landing, throttle is recomended at about 25-45% with full trim and full flaps, keep airspeed above 350 km/h(220mph), and brake immediately after contact.
-During high speed cruse, sweep wings back(AG1 on), throttle at 100%, afterburners on(AG2 on), and about -1/4 flaps
-During inflight refueling, throttle should be around 30-45%, with trim constantly being adjusted for a level approch to the tanker.
-Aircraft will become less manevurable if below 400 mph, and stalls at about 350 to 300 mph

This aircraft is VR friendly (hopefully)
