Auto Credit Based on ChunderDownUndeR's Model 320

Adjusted the CoM, position of landing gear and the airbrakes to make it easier to land. Also changed the control surfaces from roll to pitch and from pitch to roll for slightly better maneuverability (roll/ailerons should always be more on the outside of the wings for effectiveness). Guns moved further into the wings to make it look more realistic. :)

    @CDUflappy The center of mass could still be moved a bit to the back, as it pitches down even on higher speeds and it doesn't seem unstable. CoM should be as close to the CoL as possible for agility, but if the aircraft heavily pitches upwards or you lose control while pitching, it should be moved further to the front. Your aircraft handled pretty well and realistic in it's previous state already. :)
