I seem to have this problem with some add-ons. Even though the plane is flying 'level' at cruise speed, when you go to spot view it seems to be flying with a high angle of attack. Is there something I can change in the aircraft.cfg file to make this a little more realistic looking?

Making the aircraft look level is unrealistic because in real life, the aircraft actually cruise about 1-3 degrees above level 😉
