The following how-to shows you how to animate a tail-dragger airplane so that its pitch attitude looks proper for the AI aircraft's airpeed. This is not needed for aircraft with tricycle landing gear. | The following how-to shows you how to animate a tail-dragger airplane so that its pitch attitude looks proper for the AI aircraft's airpeed.

=== Controlling scenario aircraft === | |||
After a scenario has been loaded, the aircraft can be controlled with properties. | |||
For example to control a tanker, locate it in /ai/models, for example ai/models/tanker[0], and change properties under ai/models/tanker[0]/control/ | |||
