The real (747-400) has a maximum operating speed limit (Vmo) of 365 kias at 10,000 ft. (This speed remains the same from Sea Level up to 29,000 ft where it becomes .92 mach).
The flight model may be reflecting this limitiaton somehow. jj ----- Original Message ----- From: "Justin Smithies" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Friday, April 28, 2006 10:07 AM Subject: [Flightgear-devel] 747-autopilot.xml > Not being a fully trained pilot , i dont know if this is right but i have > found if i go below 365 kts the aircraft stops going up and down all the time > and flys level at the set altitude if i go above 365 kts it starts to go up > and down a few hundred feet all the time until you take off the altitude hold > or reduce speed again. > > Any ideas ? > > Cheers > Justin Smithies > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > Using Tomcat but need to do more?
