Some experiment to try to achieve extreme STOL capabilities with a jet.
Controls : VTOL : reverse flaps
-AG1 : Navigation lights
-AG2 : Landing lights
-AG7 + Brake : engines rotation
-AG8 + VTOL : pitch attitude and wing tilt control
Tips :
-Take-off : pull back the VTOL about 60%, activate 7 then the brakes then full throttle while releasing the brakes progressively
-Cruise : De-activate AG8 for more maneuverability
-Landing : AG8 + VTOL back will allow for steeper descent. Upon final approach use AG7+brakes with throttle about 65% to touch down vertically (takes some practice).
