Why the heck do I love this tiny plane so much?

FE-326 jet interceptor, Modernized, trim B

HOW TO FLY:
1. Retract gear
2. throttle up and pull up
3. Use 1 to eject takeoff gear
Note: be gentle with the pitch. You can't just yank it down, you have to work it there or it will be very twitchy.

The FE-326 was a favourite amongst top brass for a long time, not for it's kill record, top speed or agility. They loved it for it's price, getting as low as $12.45 minus the rocket engine. The modernized version, a select group of 200,000 326s, included the fitting of a flight computer, speedometer and airspeed tube, radio, gyroscope and more. Despite the additions, many pilots felt insecure in the plane's 60 year old cockpit. This is the B trim, revised in 1976 to include a 40mm cannon in place of the old 105mm howitzer. The small gas tank held almost 400 gallons, yet the FE-1Z-JSS engine took very short time to empty it, achieving a top speed of 2107 mph at 20,000 feet. The plane was introduced in 1945, and finally ended production in 2004. It was put out of service in all countries as of 2010.
