[Skoshi Tiger]

So finally we've got the plane that is testable and comparable to it's real world self, is it any good?

Lot's of people were crying out for it, so what have you found out?

Cheers!

Yeah......I think people have come to realise this one has just come back to bite them in the ass, the bitching about this one made you think the forum was full of SU-26 pilots, the reality is people just thought this one was a safe whinge never expecting it to happen.

Yeah .... and all this world is a scam....

Yeah, real Su26 pilotos take of in this maner, holding stick with legs: :)

Well, one is able to do this in CloD too with wind set to 0 in FMB...

From Oleg Q&A in SimHQ 11/2006

Q: Why did you decide to include the Su-26 aerobatic plane in BoB?

A: Because it is a request of many users. The other one purpose – still secret.

Maybe this "secret" is test some alien flight technology?

Coolest thing yet.

Have you tried inverted spins yet in this aircraft?

Yes, alot of us were waiting for this aircraft. Acro is great training for aircraft control, and a lot of fun.

One of the main reasons that a lot of us wanted a modern acro aircraft like this was to validate FM's.

TX-Ecodragon, our XO and primary flight instructor is a real life acrobatic pilot and instructor with many years and hours in Extra's/Pitt's/Super Decathlon's will probably come back and fly now that this aircraft is in. I've been making screenshots and video's on Facebook to tease him back.

While the groundhandling/takeoff/landing and higher altitude flight regimes are broken and underdeveloped - the performance between these extremes is very cool.
