A repost, because DestinyAviation pointed out something I missed. Because clearly I didn't check my work. Check your work, because it'll save you some embarrassment, shame, or bad grades. All the same, really.

VTOL controls flaps. Elevator trim is available.

The KRIEG 101 is a Paternian airliner designed by KRIEG Aviation (now KRIEG Aerospace), and was among the first jet airliners in C&C Roleplay when introduced in 1957.

A revolutionary aircraft, it was perhaps one of the most influential aircraft in history; its podded engines on large, swept wings would form the basis of modern airliners. It was the plane that took KRIEG from a failed merger attempting to stay afloat to the powerhouse which it remains to this day.

The Paternian Air Force adopted the aircraft as the C-101 Enduracne. While its service as a cargo aircraft was short due to the infrastructure requirements compared to dedicated aircraft, it would serve far longer for battlefield surveillance (OC-101, E-8 Mercury), command and communications (EC-101, E-5 Athena), reconnaissance (RC-101 Rivet Joint), AWACS (E-7), and aerial tanker (KC-101 Endurer). Of these, the KC-101 is the most common variant, and was the backbone of the Paternian tanker fleet until the introduction of the KC-161, another KRIEG aircraft.

    This plane needs more pitch authority or more lift or airbrakes, it's approach speed has to be really so high and it can't slow down.
