New FSX Polikarpov Po-2 (U-2)

Very nice video and a great experience. I wish I will be able to have an open-cockpit flight myself sometime.

I noticed the landing was a "wheeler" and not a 3-pointer. Was the plane equipped with a skid or tailwheel. The skid would explain the wheeler landing.

I am now getting to learn the intricacies of taildragger flying so I am quite interested.

It has a skid tail so you were right :)
At takeoff it was pretty quick to lift the tail up anyway - probably the same reason...
Now my wife also appears to be interested in a PO-2 flight ;)
 
Flew this gem initially after installation into P3d v2.5... but now, no matter how little I fuel her, and how much throttle I apply... she will not move... stuck to the asphalt like glue... any thoughts?

Ta!

I'm not sure if this will help but try loading P3D with a default model first then select the PO-2. I've seen similar reported with Manfred's C97 if you select that model first;)
