Every other aircraft needs positive pressure on the yoke to lift off after rotating, some more than others.
I'd go so far as to include the stock aircraft, other devs et cetera.
With full flaps I can get the 182 to lift easily. But if the wind is off the nose by a little bit it makes the process a touch more skittish.
But the Connie?
The second I hear, "rotate" and apply just the slightest hint of pressure and the thing fairly leaps into the air.
And in reverse, when landing it seems almost docile. I have to work to trim the Comanche. With the Connie all I have to do is line up.
The flaps add so much area and yet do not interfere with handling the way they do on smaller aircraft.
The subtle nuances just make this a joy to fly.
A bit more work - RTFM is a must, but the satisfaction is worth it.
Gawd, I hate you guys. You re-ignited my passion for flight simming and now I have to get the Stratoliner, right?
Silly me - after downloading I clicked the link on the left assuming it would take me back to the product page. It of course opened the download dialog again, so I burned a download.
I cannot wait to get off work and fly this thing!

Just take a look at that big fat wing and you can see, it was meant to fly.
