I want to be able to fly the 737-800's into 5,000 foot rwy's in Australia....airports like YBUD (Bundaburg) and YPMQ (Port Macquaire). This is possible in real life but on with a SFP modification. This SFP would require a change in the Exterior Model, T/O LND Distance, Brake De-acceleration and Fuel Burn. A lot of work I might add, I'd like to know if we'll be getting this with the initial release?Reference:http://www.b737.org.uk/flightcontrols.htmCheers!

They are putting this In.

D o you have a link?

i can try and dig it up for you. i mentioned it in a topic before and Ryan said that they are putting the full SFP on the 800, and i thing parts of it on the 700.

O ok, I've been following the NGX Thread since day one and never remeber seeing anything about, don't worry about digging it up! THanks though

SWEET thanks

Where do you see anything about brake deceleration and engine fuel burn?

Flight spoilers are capable of 60 degree deflection on touchdown by addition of increased stroke actuators. This compares to the current 33/38 degrees and reduces stopping distances by improving braking capability. Main gear camber (splay) reduced by 1 degree to increase uniformity of braking across all MLG tyres.Reduction of engine idle-thrust delay time from 5s to 2s to shorten landing roll. Fuel savings vary with series and route structure but may average up to 4.3%.http://www.b737.org....ghtcontrols.htm

Boy, I can tell you one thing for sure ... these babies BRAKES like hell!! The difference is really noticeable!!

I hope the team developped that wheels getting flame out afther using hard brakes. (Thats as real as it gets) Maybe we can smell the burning from the simulator :(
