• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

SOH RTW First Public Practice

A good test! now 1050 miles out, 1132 Kts. up to 64500' for fuel economy (dinn'a take a full load).

I imagine the Vig will stuka in a bit better, the Conk takes quite a while in the re-entry manuver!

Finally got the ship stabilized, more than half way through the trip! "Otto" can't maintain speed, for some reason. It must be frightened by the hold mach setting of 2.00, because she keeps slowing down when I engage mach hold. Manually, I have it steady at mach 1.94, GS 1142, 41,000 FT.

Look at Auto Throttle settings in the aircraft.cfg most are set to max rpm 90 which I believe is 90 percent of N2 which is why they can not hold full throttle.

Have your machanic install the 97 or 100 percent N2 upgrade.
 
Tom, there's no answer to that CG light so ignore it. Suggest 300mi out at least for that altitude for re-entry!

Good show so far guys!
