pushback problem!

Not sure if this post should be here, or in another forum since the problem is with the Dreamfleet Piper Archer, if this is the wrong place then the mods can move it  ;D

Anyway the problem is this:
I put the plane on the ramp, and there was a building directly in front of the plane, after I get my clearance to taxi, I used the SHIFT+P to get room to turn the plane, BUT when I hit the SHIFT+P to stop the pushback the plane flips backwards and crashes  :o

Any ideas  ???
Thanx

Do you have your brakes on?
I've done that a couple of times.  ::)

Also; if its flipping over backwards you might check your C of G - it might be too far aft.

Yep I did indeed have the brakes on  :o
Released the brakes before I started the pushback and it works fine  ;D
Silly me ::)
Thanx Staiduk  ;)
