Tired of those boring slow towplanes? I have the solution!

OVERSPEED! (I actually got up to about 500 knots. ;D)

that's awesome, I did try searching for "Aerotow" as you suggested, however the only topic that keeps coming up is this topic...

What file(s) should be looked at for achieving the desired effect of using the F-18?
