Notes
Due to Stormworks physics:
- The rear ramp is only operable with speeds below 140 knots.
- The gear sometimes wont completley retract. In this case, extend and retract it multiple times, until you see 3 greens on the gear indicator
- At speeds above 170 knots you can experience elevator flutter
