CT-114 Tutor - Canada's Snowbirds aerobatics team jet.
The Canadair CT-114 Tutor (company model CL-41) was the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF), and later Canadian Forces, standard jet trainer between the early 1960's and 2000. Designed and built by Canadair, it was ordered in September 1961.
The Tutor served as the Canadian Forces primary jet trainer until it was replaced by the CT-155 Hawk and CT-156 Harvard II in 2000. The CL-41G model supplied to Malaysia was built as a ground-attack aircraft.
The CT-114 Tutor is still used to this day (2014) as Canada's Snowbirds aerobatics team jet. It is ironic that the aircraft are older than the pilots who fly them.
RealFlight controls:
Standard flight controls along with opening cockpit canopy, retracts, brakes, and smoke.
Cockpit canopy - opened with channel 8 switch farthest away from you
Smoke - switch on with channel 8 switch in the middle position
Normal flight - channel 8 switch in position closest to you. No smoke.
Various modifications for RF 7.5 provide realistic model performance.
Engine parameters now match JetCat P200-SX specifications. 52 lbs. thrust provides “adequate” performance.
Airbrakes - (side doors on rear of fusulage) auto engaged with throttle at idle
Wheel brakes - down elevator
Flaps - Interlink controller rotary knob channel 6
Landing gear - Channel 7 switch
Fly with the rate switch (channel 5) in the “High” position. Lands well with flaps.
This is an excellent jet model. Well worth adding to your RealFlight hangar.
