Hey,

I was being sarcastic. I have no idea.
I have not tried it... just the thought of a Mark 82 (500 lbs bomb) on an Ultra Light is hilarious.

Heck, why not go for a MOAB. Grin

I have not messed around the SDK stuff yet.. is it possible to have the simulator add the weight of the bomb to the load of the aircraft, and then have it reduce it after you drop the ordanance?

Sorry I could not answer you, I let my sarcastic side get the better of me.

See link here for pics, so you have a good comparison.

I think its a fun idea, but if I am going to carry bombs on an aircraft in a simulator, I want it to simulate carring 500 lbs per bomb, as well as the change in flight behavior after the payload has been delivered. I love B-17's personally. Used to fly one all the time in FS9. Its such a great design.

You can try using the SDK to develop your own missions, using what ever aircraft you want, I suppose, even imported ones.

I know this is a bit off topic but all the talk of bombs on Ultralights reminded me of this I saw this year Grin
