Default RE: Harrier test flights begin

I had a stabilization computer developed for it, without this it would not work, although I have had some limited success with gyros but not as good as what I am using, the problem is, if you don't have the power on, your puffers are not working, and if the aircraft is gaining altitude as you are slowing down you don't want to add more power and go even higher. This is where all the work come in that I am doing now with the flaps and elevator trim mixes


GR7Racer, thanks, yup your description was just about bang on. Do you go to Elmirage often?
