Managed to get engine started after some tinkering about and took off (below)
Image
well a little bit of low flying never hurt anyone ! ! ! ! (except me engine) (below)
Image
I knew something was seriously up when the engine suddenly stopped (below)  :'( :(
Image
there was only one way to go and that was down in the water. (below)
Image
Well i thought if i was goin down i betta go down in style (below)

The answer to that is i have got the Scenery graphics maxed out, and also the aircraft's aswell. i had to mess about with the frame rate to manage to get flying without it being all jittery.

i couldn't get back to dry land when it cut out so there was only one thing i could do an that was to try and waterlanding. i know flying with the wings folding isn't good but it makes it a lot more fun,
