737NG-700 - high pitch angle

Featured Replies

Hi! After successful deploy of 737NG-700 I observed strange (too high) angles of attack during flight.FS settings of realism: General - 100%P-Factor - 50%Torque - 50%Gyro - 0%Crash Tollerance - 100% Weather: clearNo weather addons AircraftGW: 129lb/ LZW: 111lb, Trim: 5.5Fuel: 100%/3.5%/100%Load prepared using PMDG Load manager Results250kt/0FLAPS - 3.7deg (5000ft horizontal flight)200kt/1FLAPS - 4.5deg (3000ft horizontal flight)180kt/5FLAPS - 4.9deg (2700ft horizontal flight)160kt/10FLAPS - 5.9deg (GS 3%)138kt/30FLAPS - 7.1deg (vref+5kt from FMC) (GS 3%) Flaps applied using speed-flaps schedule from FMC. I think that above angles are too high. What could be the problem? Thanks in advanceBRSebastian

They all look good except for 138kts/30Flaps. This should be around 2 to 3 degrees at the most. You may have had the speed brake deployed. A deployed speedbrake will cause the nose to pitch up to compensate for lost of lift.John Floyd

With 100% fuel in your wings at landing, if that is what you are stating, you may have been heavy requiring the higher pitch.

It's not the fuel. The aircraft only weighs 129,000 lbs.
