News: I just bought the Steam version of SimplePlanes in the laptop! Yay!

Tips to land on carrier down below!

This is my new creation, or replica, the Sukhoi SU-33, which is the navy version of the Flanker jets. It is capable of landing on USS Beast by activating 2 parachutes. Its slowest and stable speed is 180mph (if set to 10 degrees angle of attack, throttle should be at least 10-12%)
Controls: VTOL up for canards going up, VTOL down for canards going down (the canards also turn when aircraft is rolling or pitching). Act5 is parachutes, act6 to drop armaments, VTOL+act7 DOWN (lowest notch) will fold wings.

How to land on carrier:
NOTE that carrier height is about 90+ft this helps landing the plane softly. First, crosshair at the horizon, trim down, vtol to 2nd top notch. Careful not to get the plane below 180mph! When very to the carrier, throttle down and control the plane (or not, its up to you) when you are on top, activate group5 for parachutes! And thats it! ENJOY!
