Piaggio p108B

Thanks for the head-up. Downloading. :ernae:

The only WWII Italian bomber with more than 3 engines... must have it. :bump:
 
Very nice bird, but I'm having problems apparently with the contact points (of which I know nothing). At the start, the aircraft is about 5-10 feet above the tarmac/runway. My default aircraft always starts paused so when I hit the 'P' button, the Piaggio drops to the ground with a resultant crash.

Please, advice, hints, suggestions to cure the problem. I really like the aircraft and want to enjoy flying her.

Cheers and thanks in advance,

Bob
 
Thanks, John, for the quick work around. Off to slip the surely bonds of earth in the Piaggio.

Bob, I tweaked the contact points and static C/G angle and height. Try the attached file, just rename it "aircraft.cfg" and replace the original Piaggio cfg. This should eliminate the plane smacking the deck on start-up.
