I downloaded the "Stratojet Albatross" however although the rudder works in flight, I cannot steer the craft while moving in water. I did not see any water rudder but it should steer using the tail rudder. I don't have this problem with other sea or float planes. Any sugestions?

Yes. Read the manual. Wink

To open the first door press “shift + e + 1”
To open the second door press “shift + e + 2”

To extract/retract the water rudder press ~~"shift + w"~~ or use the lever on the throttle panel.

"Shift+w" is wrong. The default raise/lower water rudder is Ctrl+W. Best I could tell, the lever in the vc is not clickable but will show the state of the water rudder.
