FEATURES & NOTES
📌 Go.12 Trident LR is Long Range variant of Go.10 built by Goldwing Aeronautica for flight endurance and distance records. It began with removing the passenger seats and increasing the fuel capacity more than double. But it became quickly clear that the already high wing loading will be even higher, thus wing area has to be increased. It was nicknamed as flying fuel tank by factory workers because of fuel weight being higher than its empty weight. Expected range of 1500km could not realized but Navigator/Radio Operator station kept.

📌 Check takeoff, cruise and landing settings for throttle.
📌 When altitude or direction hold is enabled, stabilizer automatically activates.
📌 Holding the Down key while on ground will put the aircraft on reverse mode.

CalBug2012,
I don't plan to continue Goldwing Aeronautica series but I may add one or two if we do another Weightworks challenge.

Are you still doing Stormworks, @Thales? I love your vehicles, and you are my favorite workshop creator! my favorite aircraft was your Fokker floatplane.

Something must be changed related to air drag, because its max speed is now 220 kph and cruise speed is now 185 kph.
