747 speed again

Recommended Posts

Guest Rwilson

all,I have the 747-400, and yet again the speeds are anoying me.When i'm climbing from 10,000 feet, everything is ok, but when i get to 28,000 ft, my airspeed drops. I know about the air pressure, it's just the speed keeps dropping. Today i was having a flight, and my speed dropped so low that it stalled. Am i doing anything wrong?(ps i wasn't over wieght)robbie

is your VNAV and A/T activated? also, are you using any kind of weather software? try replicating a flight where you've experienced the drop in airspeed but with clear weather. report back. also, i think the latest FSUIPC allows you to smooth weather, i think. not sure.gl,tomas
