I was bored, so I built a wing... kind of.
I got even more bored while building it because it became tedious, so I cheated.
A lot.
Anyway, the main wing does look like a proper wing or something you would find on a model aircraft at any rate.
Flies pretty nicely, will take off all by itself, but because of the wing structure the faster it goes, the more it wants to climb. However, you can trim it so that it flies level.
Controls as per normal.
Engines XML'd for power X2.
