Auto Credit Based on deimosrun's PL-12 Airtruck

Just uploading this for deimosrun at their request.

!!!THIS IS NOT MY PLANE!!!

If you would like to rate, please rate the original as well.

Changes:

- Altered the wing-flaps to look and behave more like actual flaps.

- Widened wings to accommodate new flaps.

- Changed tail-booms so they attach more fluidly to the wing.

- Removed lower Ailerons and increased size of main Ailerons.

- Added hidden small jet-engine for extra power (helps prevent stalls without being over-powered).

- Made the nose-gear steerable.

- Altered the size of the elevators for improved pitch control.

I think that's it...

    Very scale. I love it. Too bad Max didn't make the flight.

    Better than mine. I just took avay jet engine and some oil barrels to improve the plane for more realistic. So ~ max speed now is 130-150 mph just like true Airtruck.

    @deimosrun Here you go. The only real problem I've had is that it tends to lose control if you nose down really hard. So just go easy on the stick when applying downward pitch, and also go easy on take-off too (it only takes a gentle pull on the stick with the flaps down).
