February 24, 200917 yr Captain,Isn't there TOGW - FLAPS setting table?Sincerely,Kan-ichiro FushiharaNo, that is not available, since the MD-11 uses "dial a flap" feature- so you will not have a fixed flap value for a certain weight- the flap setting changes with the conditions to get the optimum performance.RGDS CU, Tom Morello- FSX SP 2, WIN 7, 64Bit.

I would like to know the method to find optimum angle of the flaps.Sincerely,Kan-ichiro Fushihara
February 24, 200917 yr I see. I would like to know the method to find optimum angle of the flaps.I would, too. But I don't think that information has been made available - possibly because Boeing hasn't released it to the general public? The same applies to procedures for selecting assumed temperatures.Tom Tom Risager NGX tutorial: http://library.avsim.net/sendfile.php?Location=AVSIM&Proto=ftp&DLID=162360 SIDs & STARs Worked Examples: LOWI-UUDD, KSEA-KLAX, EKCH-ENGM, YSCB-YPAD
February 24, 200917 yr There are a couple of long threads on this topic already. Apparently, most operators have settings for all cases and some have a couple of settings. A search will reveal the extensive discussions. Dan Downs KCRP
