RE: FS One by Hangar 9
Here's another neat example:
Pick the MiG-15, and then using the scaling stuff, set the span to full scale: 427 inches, and the weight to: 11,000 lbs. The full-scale empty is around 8000 lbs and max is 13000 lbs. Then take off. What I find really interesting is that it takes 1 min to reach a speed of 600 mph, and then after 1 min 20 sec it gets to 660 mph. This is with full throttle the entire time, i.e. this delay is not spool up. When we're used to dealing w/ models, waiting 1 min to reach near max speed is loonnnnggggg! BTW - Max speed for the real MiG-15 is around 670 mph. So this close match to full speed all comes 'for free' w/ the automatic scaling.
I also like to turn off autozoom: 'F1' with 'a', then 'd'
Smoke on: 's'
Then put the HUD up: 'h'
Or fly w/ the airplane 'F6' twice, or 'F5' cameras
