I don't have all the facts, just my experiences of having flown in the same general area quite a few times, and the radar track as seen on Passur. I did just fire up Flight Simulator 2004 tho with an SR-20 to see if that turn is even possible, and flying north at 100 kts, 30 degree bank to the left, maintaining level flight, I was not able to avoid crossing over into Manhattan when starting from directly over the east bank of the East River. Maybe it's doable at a slower speed, but you'd have to probably drop flaps to safely slow the plane down more. (not sure what the clean stall speed is of that plane). You don't need to care about stalls in that plane--it has airbag seatbelts, a parachute, and pretty color screens. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |
