I've not put another airplane on it since and I damn sure would not put one of my turbines on it. I also have the one EA sells and IIRC I paid $400.00 for it as part of a package deal for a model and turbine.
Oops! Thanks for the heads up. I will indeed be careful and will try to weigh in here with my own experiences once I get it.
