Description:

If you are having issues with the rudder or roll controls I recommend that you get out of the pilot seat then re-enter the pilot seat, this should solve the issue, also DO NOT USE INF FUEL OR ELECTRIC. Also I highly recommend you activate the altitude hold before turning on the autopilot, if you don’t do that the autopilot might drive the plane into a dive.

The Red Ribbon is an old DC-3, built in 1940, it’s a civilian aircraft commissioned by an unnamed Swedish company, after sitting in a hanger for many years this old machine is surprisingly still in air worthy condition, just unclog the engines from oil and try not to mind the cracks in the walls…

To activate the destruction feature just hit the button called "You have 5 seconds…" after which the aircraft will explode in 5 seconds. The button can be located in the small room between the cabin and cockpit.
