    One of the most common complaints that I've seen about Universe Powerglide is that, with the gun attached to the bottom of the nose, his front landing gear fails to keep the plane front resting on the gun barrel. Indeed, the whole plane seems to tip downwards too far. Well, the toy's been out for a while now, and I haven't seen this super easy fix posted anywhere, so here goes:

    1) Instead of leaving the landing gear pointing straight downwards, push the landing gear forwards on an angle.

    2) Drink a tall, cold glass of milk; it's very good for you.

    That's it! The plan now sits (somewhat) level and rests on all three wheels rather than resting on the nose gun!

    Enjoy!

    Can I have chocholate in my milk? Or cereal or something? I really don't like the taste of straight up milk.
