Robin DR400-120 Petit Prince

Built since 1972, Robin DR400-120 is a wooden sport monoplane, conceived by Pierre Robin and Jean Délémontez that has trained many pilots. Designed and built for pilot training, you will find it in many french and european flying clubs. The Robin "Petit Prince" is piston-engine aircraft of modest power (120HP) equipped with fixed tricycle landing gear with a relatively limited in payload, but ideal for school, either for learning the basics of handling or for navigation. The aircraft features an excellent visibility, a forward-sliding canopy  and a cranked wing design, giving it a distinctive appearance.

This tweak enhance the realism and the flight model to provide an easy plane to fly like in real life ;)
