November 9, 200223 yr Hi ChapsIs it me or does this beauty cruise at level altitude a little on the flat side.At slower speeds the airfile seems to be right on the money with regards to pitch/atitude but when in cruise at say mach.82 the atitude reads 0 degrees, I have used a posky3 model and Lees mergeComments suggestions!?thanks keith
November 10, 200223 yr I generally see 1-2 degs nose up at cruise, depending on the weight.I don't believe I've ever seen it at 0.James
