Freeware Zlin Z-142!

would be nice if the patch can fix the ADI aircraft symbol, it's now all white but should be black bracket extending from both sides to the center white --o-- as shown in the photos.
 
I have found that, if I work at it (realism sliders full right, joystick full back, slow taxi speed), if I hit the brakes hard enough to bounce the front tire off the ground, the tail will sink below ground level followed by somersaults and other gymnastics that only an aircraft reload/reset can put to rest. Perhaps an adjustment to the tail scrape point, COG, or something would cure?

Have had the same experience after a (sloppy, I guess) landing - couldn't exactly figure out why, but this describes what happened, so I must have come down nosewheel first. IIRC I had it happen once in a parking spot on engine shutdown - am guessing my controls were set in such a way as to put pressure on the nosewheel. Reporting it here for what it's worth. Only an occasional behavior and hasn't in the least diminished how much I'm enjoying the aircraft.

Tinkered with nose wheel contact point compression and compression ratio.
Fixes for me, but don't know if is realistic. Perhaps developer can find a happy medium.
