LOL...thanks...the bird's so easy to land! I was going down the runway with my front gear off the ground for a good while!

I'd be really interested in learning to fly this thing properly to be honest... 8)...I can't get it to go to a level attitude during cruise...the least I can get is 10 degress up pitch to maintain altitude. Embarrassed

What am I doing wrong? That's at fulll throttle with full afterburners... Roll Eyes

..at 32000 feet aswell...Auto Throttle set for Mach .84 as found in the Flight Manual... Sad

Hey Whitey you probally can't get it to hold altitude because the plane is probally to heavy. Most planes can only reach normal cruise after losing some fuel so try that otherwise I dunno what's wrong.

Well, with full flaps, the B-1Bs stall speed is 90 IAS...you should be aiming to hit the ground at 100 IAS. Wink

I just give it ful power as I'm flaring and it works for me...LOL...doesn't work that way in airliners...they just start climbing staraight away. Grin

I doubt I'm doing it right, Bone184... Sad
