Dear god has it really been 2+ years since my last upload?! Well, I guess life just hits that way sometimes. It took the Imminent release of SP2 to wake me from my slumber and as such I needed a good aircraft to explore the new game. I figured a fun STOL taildragger would be a great way to take in the fine details of the new game. So here it is, a fun piper cub alike taildragger with detail on par to the S-26 Canary!

The S-4 Parakeet is very similar in design and performance to the IRL Piper Super Cub. Sporting a 160HP Lycoming O-320 with the option to upgrade as high as a O-360 180hp, the Parakeet boasts impressive STOL performance. It is capable of landing just about anywhere especially with the sport kit installed. It has a lower cruise speed than even the Canary, but its low-speed handling is far better. This is a great stick and rudder fun plane, perfect for messing around with terrain and exploring.

This Aircraft boasts a similar feature set to its predecessor. It lacks many IFR luxuries but makes up for the lack of complex instrumentation with a fantastic flight model. Realistic stall, spin and coordination characteristics make flying this plane a fun and dynamic experience. On top of its flight model this aircraft also features a very unique taxi model. Many tail dragger aircraft in SP don't really behave like their IRL counterparts but here I have done my best to capture an accurate taxi model for a taildragger aircraft. Utilizing a semi-free caster tail wheel design based on the aircraft that inspired it, this plane has great ground maneuverability, capable of the tight turns and low speed controllability these STOL planes are known for. This aircraft also has full rudder and elevator propwash simulation so left turning tendencies will be encountered along with the ability to lift the aircrafts tail off the ground before even rolling. Overall, this plane is meant for the stick and rudder pilot, less concerned about fancy instrument suites and complex systems and more interested in pure flight characteristics and capabilities.

Thanks to BaconEggs for code initially made for the S-28 Canary that was used in this aircraft!
