Correct pressurization tips?

Hello again! May I ask whether its correct to pressure the acft manually that during cruise,the diff. Ratio is only 1000ft behind the redline, then inside presure is comfortable? Is it OK to start pressuring over 6000ft (or when diff reaches half way) instead direct after takeoff,just like automatic...

Re: Low-flap landing, at high speeds (150+kias)

Thanks for all replies...Well, I will then pretend those are mandatory. Informative content there! Thank you. Just keeping the limitations, and likely not using finalflaps much :D Deployment on IM mostly makes me gain altitude and having to go around or steepdive :O On 4-5miles final I intend on lan...

Re: Low-flap landing, at high speeds (150+kias)

In the book I dont see Vref for Flap 18 for BAC. It is not a MD11 that needs Cat A speed on approach, and would work OK for such lighter airframe. Tell me when you are in groupflight, you have B777 behind you for final, ATC advises you hold 160 kts till 5 miles final. Its not such problem but after ...

Re: Low-flap landing, at high speeds (150+kias)

Once in Amsterdam RealFlyEvent we had 45kts headwind and had to Vref at 180kias flap15,and when no gust it was a compromisable touch,with B734. Except tyre heat, reversers and spoilers are enough to slowdown to half of runway,70kias. Approching COMT at flap60/80 and 110kias is painful at high revvin...

Low-flap landing, at high speeds (150+kias)

To whom it may concern. I mostly prefer my landings at high speeds for more economy,plus when the aprons are far end of runway(Normally I dont strain the limits on standard occasions)...Also don't forger the higher power requirement caused by motors at higher flaps. As we simulate a VA, I ask my bos...

Re: VC or 2D panel...Which do you use/prefer while on FS

Well I sometimes think about using HJG models, as they look cool except VC, something I only used for years thanks to ActiveCamera 2004. I was way too OK with Dreamfleet 727 plus its VC,except sometimes needed FE panel popup. Yet it looks way more fun than still 2D view. However no recent models app...

VC or 2D panel...Which do you use/prefer while on FS

I always prefer VC. I need someone to persuade me to prefer 2D as you are way too limited there, overhead panel on your windows pop-upped, same view all time,whole flight instead panning around for looking other things,etc etc. But some HJG models look so hardworked and mediocre-detailed, yet no VC....

Re: Which airlines operated which routes...Our database

Dan Air was the main UK operator Sabre, Cougar and British Airways were others :) BAW didnt use 727s, did they? Ahh,got it. Outbound UK most routes are danair for UK-EU routes right? And sabre,baw,others...Maybe I would just pretend if its that airline's FP, as long as I pick the tailreg for that a...
