FOKKER 27 FRIENDSHIP (C-31 TROOPSHIP)
Hi Guys!
This time, I made the iconic and one of the most recognizable turboprop aircraft, the Fokker 27! I made the Friendship with Trigana Air livery (PK-YRA, msn 10447 - this variant is actually the C-31 Troopship).

I somewhat implement STOL mechanic to this aircraft, because I built this aircraft to be able to land and takeoff from airports with short runways, such as the Wright Isles North Runway airport.
GUIDE
You need to use the trim a little bit on this aircraft to maintain stable flight. Just after you takeoff, the aircraft seems to be nose-heavy, but as soon as you retract the landing gear and continue on for a little bit, the aircraft will soon become stable again (little trim usage is necessary). The engines do consume quite a lot of fuel, so flying on 60-70% throttle while cruising is the most efficient technique to save fuel. Hope you guys enjoy it!
