OysterCatcher

Auto Credit Based on alrik1981's Sparrow

Loosely based on a famous tri-plane from the first world war. The OysterCatcher can be tricky to takeoff with its veering behaviour, although it manages it in a very short time. Landing requires careful braking, as not to break the engine in a catastrophic nosedive. Airborne it's a treat to fly, rather nimble and forgiving.
