Default VQ Model Engine Size

In general, 40 size AT-6 Texans are a handful to take off and land due to their short tail moment. My buddy, and excellent pilot, has the GP AT-6, and he always seems to have problems with it. There is a saying that if you can fly the real AT-6, then you can fly anything.

I got 50+ flights from a grass field on my VQ Zero now, and both of my landing gears are still intact. Typical of all warbirds, you must land with some power.
