Re: Engines need a tune-up?

Fantastic info Dave, much appreciated!

I've read others opinion of the Trident's flying capabilities - particularly its outstanding roll rate. Still my favourite kite to fly in FSX - I'm working on a slight airfile and aircraft cfg mod to the T2 to try and emulate the 1C. I know the wings are ...

Re: Engines need a tune-up?

Absolutely cracking advice there Dave - the sort of concrete figures from an actual Trident driver I've been hankering after!

I flew LXGB-EGLL last night and the OAT (25C) at Gib meant my T3 was EGT limited - 595C was giving me 11800rpm which didn't provide much in the way of acceleration, even ...

Trident & 1-11 Thrust Setting for Takeoff

Morning,

I have been flying the Trident and 1-11 extensively over the past few years, and have always used the method of 100% on the Thrust Index gauges, EGT out of the Red (600c) as my power setting for takeoff.

Now, I was reading somewhere (it escapes me exactly where) that there were actually ...

BAC 1-11-500 PFPX Performance Profile

Good afternoon,

I have produced a performance profile to allow the excellent DM BAC 1-11-500 to be planned for using the PFPX program. If anybody would like the file, please download it directly from Aerosoft at http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/files/file/2896-bac-1-11-500-pfpx-performance ...

Re: Bac 1-11 APU problem

:excited:

That's done the trick! Cheers Ben, very much appreciated. I find it most puzzling that I downloaded the cab from earlier in the thread that you provided - definitely the standard one, not the 510 version - and it just wouldn't work. It still won't shut down, but that I can live with ...

Re: Bac 1-11 APU problem

I really don't mean to try and dig up an old thread, but is the APU issue resolved in FSX for the standard 1-11's?

I've inserted the new re-compiled cab into my 1-11-400 and the APU seems to get stuck in the start cycle. Just to confirm, it is a simple as:

1) Trip APU Generator to 'OFF' then APU ...

Re: A few Questions about the VC10....

Hi Gary,

Sure sounds like sour grapes to me *-) It might be 400ft nowadays, I seriously doubt it back then though. Trident was 500ft AGL, I can't see it being any lower than that.

I know the 'methods' of navigation, I'm just not sure about which Autopilot lateral mode was recommended (either by ...

A few Questions about the VC10....

Morning chaps,

I've been an anonymous frequenter on these forums for a little while, and seeing as I can't find the answers I'm looking for could think of no where better to ask!

I love using DM's models; to be honest there is nothing else at the minute I am flying in FSX. However, I like to try ...
