There is a problem with the model ... the stall speed seems to be about 140+

"Bank sharply and fly into the ground" is yasim's version of a stall ... 
which is pretty plausible.

I'm wondering if it's a severly overweight issue.  Someone added a 
couple thousand lbs of fuel after I had the model flying pretty close to 
the numbers ... it definitely needs tweaking ...
