Ground Effect

Recommended Posts

Guest ColdBear

Ground EffectThe "ground effect", i.e. the additional lift that occurs when the aircraft is close to the ground (on the 747 up to 200 ft AGL) is accurately modelled in Precision Simulator( see www.aerowinx.com ), but how is it modelled in MS FS 2004? Can anyone try it out for me please?

Actually, to me it feels like an opposite effect is in play... more of a ground "suction" than a "cushion." But this has been partially addressed elsewhere with the default trim settings.
