Auto Credit Based on A5mod3us's Race Plane Challenge 2.0 (CLOSED)

Based on a 1930's racing mono plane this light thin plane relies on that big prop to churn the air into submission. The steep pitch on take off and landing makes her a challenge to fly safely but she hits amazing speeds considering her 1000hp total output well and truly surpassing most prop planes made throughout the war years and beyond. Feed the power into about 40% for take off with the stick back or you will snag the prop until she is in the air. For landing come in shallow, dea ad engine, about 120mph and feather the approach at the last 10ft. Replaces broken version .
