Let's start with the biggest terrain mesh bug EVER
If you go to the seaplane airport 2M5, you will see on one side some strange mountains...
http://www.simviation.com/yabbuploads/Ivan_Crater1Clockwise, starting above left:
- Heading to the abyss, watch the strange mountain shapes
- Just over the edge
- Diving down, full flaps and prop in Beta range
- After landing and some moving around in slew mode i decided to try and get out of the pit with the Piper Cub
http://www.simviation.com/yabbuploads/Ivan_Crater2Getting out of the pit with the Cub, just getting over the edge with a few 100 ft AGL
http://www.simviation.com/yabbuploads/Ivan_Crater3-11826Ft, the lowest you can get whitout crashing the aircraft. this is just behind the bridge
http://www.simviation.com/yabbuploads/Ivan_Crater4-12479Ft... i think this is the lowest point. as you can see you can't land there
Next Subject: Cheburashka
Cheburashka is the nickname of the An-72, it is a russian comic figure, a mouse with very big ears.
Aircraft model by Dimitry Samborski, see AVSIM forums for the engine power fix to give it real STOL performance
Clockwise again starting left top:
- Just left Kohorg(sp) in Tajikistan. the airfield is really worth the try.
- As there is no route by airway to dushanbe from there you either follow the river in a low level run or you go over BinLaden country... and when you think you are going the right way they try to get you into kabul instead of your planned destination and cancel IFR.
- Finally arrived in a foggy Dushanbe... flight was completely illegal because of the weather i consider afterwards
- Trying out the STOL performance... push the stick forward or you will go up like a jet fighter
