    Aweasome! Im sure that @Captain. Adam will love it
    One question tho, in my game they top speed at 325 kph, i read online, and mach 1 is 1225kph, so something is wrong with my game or is it normal? I read it in here: http://www.metric-conversions.org/speed/mach-to-kilometers-per-hour.htm
    --- Post updated ---
    Update:
    I found the error: Thenormal speedometer fails, it is needed to use air speed app
    Im sorry to posting that i didnt noticed, but here is the solution to people that have the same problem :)

    Also BEFORE YOU COMPLAIN THAT THIS AIRCRAFT IS HARD TO MANEUVER:
    -This is an interceptor, not a fighter. It's meant to get up in the air, and get to it's target at high speed.
    - Also, a quote from the test pilot of the IRL plane : " Turning at Mach 2.0 takes a radius of about ten miles with 5G, if I remember right, so doing a 360deg turn at this speed takes quite a long time"

    BEFORE YOU COMPLAIN THAT LANDING IS TOO HARD:
    -Another quote from the test pilot "The Arrow had quite a high landing speed. As far as I remember, it was of the order of 170 knots across the threshold, 160 at touchdown"

    Amazing! Could you somehow make more parts breakable, or is this not possible?

    Its constantly rolling to the left, making it really annoying to handle. Landing gear also likes to fail really easily. Other than that, nicely done!

    Before I clicked, I thought this would be a joke mod where it's really close to completion and gets cancelled all together prior to release.

    Anyhow, great work on it so far.

    landing gear "failing easy" is a pilot problem ;). It should honestly collapse much easier .

    The rolling left is something I need to look into though

    Sounds like a problem on your end.
    What browser are you using?
    And, when you click 'Install', make sure you are on the Overview tab, or it will not work

    Working on an update that will probably signify the FINAL update for this aircraft. It was supposed to be 100% complete when I released it on the repo, but a lot of it was rushed in last minute , and things were forgotten :(

    They aren't. You just have to learn the limits. They are very reasonable.

    I've watched youtubers drop this thing so hard that the rear of the plane strikes the ground, and the wings withstand that.
