Default Ford Tri-Motor ground handling in FS2004 is ridiculous.

The plane won't turn unless I hold the rudder for ages and then all of
a sudden it turns a full circle. I just can't handle this plane on the
ground. What am I doing wrong? I already tried the "unlock tail wheel"
command but that's not it.

Hi,

In the FS Learning Center read "How to Fly a Taildragger" - lot's of
good info there. Differential brakes (F11/F12) will do a lot to help.

Hope this helps,

OK, thx. That sorted it. I tend not to rerad the online manual. If MS
had included a HC manual I would have.
