  1. I just like to reflect a bit on the landing technique in crosswind,.

    Fly the aircraft to the runway with neutral rudder, a second or so before landing, apply rudder to reduce the crabbing angle. After touchdown, continue to align with the runway and gently land the nose wheel when you are going straight down the runway. Maintain wings level with aileron.

    don't ever touch the tiller before taxi speed! or you will be filing paperwork the rest of the day. :)

  2. The way I was taught to fly the classics was with a fixed set of speeds for average weight. Clean/210 Flap1/190 Flap5/170 Flap15/gear-down/150 Flap25/Vref+5. For heavy weights add 10 knots to all speeds. Set flaps 10kts above previous flap speed, for example from 250kts: set speed 190, when passing 220 set flap 1. Hope this helps!

  3. Works like a charm! Many thanks!

    Perhaps one minor issue, not sure if this is xpx11 related or if it was already like this in xp10:

    I have the fuel setup in kg. in the PERF page I can setup the amount in kg (tonnes). the totalizer is also in KG as are the gauges on the main panel.

    In the PROGRESS page, FROM waypoint is als in KG, however, the next waypoints and the destination show in LBS...

    Anyone else seeing this?

    can you attach your xplane log.txt file found on your xplane root folder please

    Wilco

    just in case, you can not use default xplane a/p on this bird. You have to use pedestal or custom commands to engage

    Thanks I know, I have assigned the custom autopilot commands. :)

  5. Bug report!

    This happened again when I tried to switch on the autopilot. see screenshot

    First I decided to continue the sector manually but other weird things happened such as the landing lights where not responding to the switches any more so I binned it, restarted the sim and it worked again in the next attempt.

    No biggy but another 40 minutes of time lost.

     

    Hope you can find a fix for this!
