Installation
unzip "2 mod folder"; place contents in desired mod folder. Allow overwrites if necessary
MOD NOTE
The F-16C_25 aircraft tends to pitch up rapidly resulting in a tail strike if player does not fly carefully. This problem is noted in several FMs and as far back as the Block 25 in NATO Fighters 5. There is no fix at this time although it is more immersion killer than damaging to the aircraft. Best to keep the nose down until rotation speed (varies by load) then "pop" the aircraft off the runway and climb out.
