not only they are not useful as speed brakes but instead they seem to provide extra thrust and lift. i was playing with the 747-yasim model yesterday, trying to come in for landing, no power (still going pretty fast at about 300 knots), gear down and then i lowered the flaps. it was fun. the plane started gaining speed and altitude. i was at 2000 feet when i lowered the flaps but before i knew it i was past 7000' and my speed was about 450 knots. boy that was fun. i tried to reproduce this, but so far no luck. --alex-- -- | I believe the moment is at hand when, by a paranoiac and active | | advance of the mind, it will be possible (simultaneously with | | automatism and other passive states) to systematize confusion | | and thus to help to discredit completely the world of reality. | _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
