Author's Notes
- Observer Wilson is inexperienced and therefore, can only somewhat accurately hit slow targets within 500m while the plane is in level flight.
- The FT used in the turret is an edited version of nafeij's Auto-Stabilized Target-Tracking Camera.
- I reccomend using full upwards VTOL on takeoff and then adjusting as necessary after leaving the ground.
- Although the Le Prieur rockets are an air-to-air weapon, they use air-to-ground mode. (I can't switch the function to AirToAir with Overload on unguided rockets.)
- While many pictures depict the F.2B with a 2-bladed propeller, there are examples with a 4-bladed prop. (Which is used here because it looks cooler.)
- Veers right on takeoff
- Bombs are so small that you can't hear them explode
- The fuel on this plane is unlimited
- The ammo on the gun is unlimited
