Trainer challenge entry

Auto Credit Based on EternalDarkness's Trainer Challenge [CLOSED]

This is my entry to the trainer challenge. This is an upgrade of my plane the duck. Controls: roll=roll, pitch=pitch, yaw=yaw. VTOL down for carrier parking. Don't worry about the nose spike, it is just for aroedynamics. It is easy to land. Fake background: The US needed a STOL trainer that could be parked on an aircraft carrier, to train pilots while at sea, that could also be used for recon and light defense. So they called on Rolls Royce to make a plane that could do so, and this is what they came up with.????
