One of the more troublesome aircraft to fly in FSX - at least for me. Maybe it's being already airborne with no throttle on smile.gif .

One of my favourite scenery testing/viewing aircraft. In a little head wind you can plonk it anywhere. It's just like a heli except so spinning in circles. laugh.gif
