    this plane is great, but for some reason, i couldn't land it on the carrier, even after over an hour of attempting to and it was pretty frustrating- the problem was that when braking, it would just pitch forward onto its nose, and using the hook is almost impossible

    maybe im just bad though

    EDIT: literraly right after i posted this i landed it perfectly first try -_-
