Andy, I'm running linux. My apologies for not having read the whole thread yet...if this has been alrady been discussed further. The 747 "seems" to have about the right power for take off. But it seems as though the thrust decreases disproportionately as altitude increases to the point that I can't get above the mid teens for altitude from a near sea level takeoff. I upped the thrust to 63000lb per engine (P&W spec) and that helped get it a few thousand feet more. I'll have to try again but I think the c172 seemed a little underpowered here as well.
