below is a preview of the README: (you will need the QMB fix from Mr Jolly in the Me-321 Mod post to make G-11 available in QMB (The link is inoperative))

G-11 Flyable Mod v1.0
---------------------
by danzigzag
This MOD adds the G-11 glider as a flyable plane using the BI-1 cockpit due to its simplicity.
The G-11 has a lot more pleasant handling than the Me-321, most likely due to the size difference. Even under tow by its primary tugs, the Li-2 or Pe-8, it is more responsive than the 'Gigant'. Like the Me-321, its flight model (FM) is most likely not complete, since towing was not meant originally as a player function.
When under tow, you have the following controls:
- Rudder
- Elevators
- Flaps (use it to control speed!)
- NO Ailerons! (But there is a slight roll in the G-11.)
When flying without a tug, you have full control. Additionally, the FM in the G-11 is different from the Me-321 in the following manners:
- Autopilot is available and can be used for both flight and takeoff.
- Autopilot cannot be used to detach plane from tug.
- There are 3 ways to detach from tug:
---* Fly in a direction opposite to tug
---* Plane will detach when tug is ready to land
---* Plane will detach if tug conducts ground attack (GATTACK waypoint)
The G-11 has great flying ability. Observe following tips:
- You can execute a full loop diving at 250Km/h or more
- Do not approach 500Km/h, as your wings will break-off
I have included 5 missions for your training which will be installed in the Single Player, USSR, G-11 selection
- Msn N1: "Glider Club" Free Fall (Start rolling down from mountain)
- Msn N2: Under Tow by Li-2 - Air Start
- Msn N3: 3-Plane Formation Tow by Pe-8 - Air Start
- Msn N4: Airfield Assault & Paratrooper Exercise - Takeoff Start
- Msn N5: "Honor First!" - Glider Ram Attack - Air Start
These missions show that this unarmed glider has a potential to really add some more enjoyment to the IL-2 series. I hope you will try these missions.
Thanks:
- MrJolly for AAA-site and installation
- QTim for tools and teaching
- Oleg & Co... without them, none of this would be possible
