Default RE: Thrust to Weight ratio...

I have the same setup in Tam's F-16 using a P-60SE with smoke. I haven't flown it yet. I would ask Tam about it. I believe you are going to accomplish what you are setting out to do with the P-60 as it will take I higher power setting to keep the same speed. One way to do this is to keep your AOA high. Keep in mind the F-16 flies well with the P-60 and will drink more fuel as a result of the lower thrust at high RPM. It may be hard to accomplish with such a clean aircraft. Hope this helps...Have you watched the videos on Tam's website? This may give you an idea.
