Here are a couple of updates for the TSR2 and YF-23.

I've reduced the poly counts on the YF-23 pilot model and added a couple
of copies to the TSR2, so there are new copies of both models.

I've also tried to incorporate the stuff that Andy R mentioned, although
not to his exact figures, so there's much less travel in the main gear
and the approach AoA has been raised.  I think the gear is definitely
improved but raising the approach AoA from 5 deg to 9 deg has also made
it a bit 'livelier' - I'd recommend 1/3 to 1/2 throttle (dry) for
take-off and then add the rest of the power once you're in the air.

Take-off on full (dry) power is a bit on the fast side and the AP doesn't
really get the a/c into the air quickly enough - you'll be doing approx
140-150kt (it accelerates so quickly that it's difficult to tell the
exact speed) whereas it'll unstick at around 130kts at 1/3rd throttle (no
flaps in either case).  Once it's in the air it likes to climb at a high
angle too, but as you can feed in full power once you're off the ground
this isn't a problem:)
