Why would that be strange? I would think that flying one VFR would be unrealistic

There are downloads for adjusting your load weight why not download one of those and adjust your payload. That would be the easiest way to solve the problem. you should be able to find a program like that on this site I've seen them on this site before.

You basically need more tail-down foce if you have to get to 280 knots, unless the weight or wing area/incidence/sweep is really out of whack. A downward force on the tail causes the nose to rise--"rotation".
To increase tail-down force, in the aircraft.cfg file:
(1) move the horizontal stabilizer more to the rear--like a lever, the further the end you are applying foce to is from the fulcrum, the more torque you will have (nose up/tail down force in this case).
(2) just set your take-off trim from the central, "neutral" position to something more nose-up.
(3) Or decrease the incidence of the vertical stabilizer This will cause air to reflect upwards, pushing the tail down and nose up.
I think it's best to just adjust (1) until you get it about right. However, if you then need to much nose-down trim in cruise, work on (2). (3) should just have the same effect as (1).

To add to RollerBall's original comment on DC-10 FDE's(only just seen this thread): some of the DC-10's out there only operate on the wing engines - in other words, the fin engine is not active (but the wing engines have additional thrust to compensate). You can see whether this is the case by looking in exterior view over 30,000 feet to look at the contrails, or more simply, by looking in the .cfg file to see how many engines there are!
y2cragie, this doesn't help with your 280kt takeoff problem, but look in your messages.
