Default limit of trim = limit of travel?

I'm not sure I understand: Are you saying that you can do slow
flight in the
sim as in the real aircraft, except that you have to do it by
instruments, or
are you saying that the sim doesn't correctly simulate slow flight at
all (i.e., it can't be done)?


Sorry, I lost this thread beneath the avalanche of Bertie/Maxwell
crap. It's amazing the depths to which so-called "real" aviators can
sink.

Anyway, the former is correct. Other than engine sound there is no
"feel" in the sim, so everything in slow flight mus be done on
instruments. Interestingly, we were trying to spin one of the Mustangs
(that comes with the Acceleration package), and were unable to do so.
It just would not break, even fully cross-controlled at the stall.
Perhaps Dudley can comment on this, as I was under the impression that
Mustangs would spin pretty easily.



it's a toy, not an airplane, dip****.
