Engine out realism (real pilots pls)

[Andrea1 6]

Hi,

I've a question to submit to any real B737 pilot regarding NGX engine out flight dynamics.

I love simflying "as real as I get" so I'm interested also in studying abnormal procedures etc and among them I often choose (naturally) "V1 cuts" especially after V1 cuts and after V2 cuts being the most demanding ones...

Now a question: In a "on-line" review it's stated by a (former) airline pilot testing the ngx that our 737 is "easier" to control in case of after v1 engine failure because yawing is lower than in real bird.

I've never flown a real "full motion" level D B738 sim and until now I've not still simulated that failure in the fixed base training b737 sim where I'm going every now and then (six hourly sessions until now) especially because before doing them it's necessary to "practice" memory items etc with my "fellow" 'cause in that case (engine failure) crew coordination during the emergengy managment is paramount. So I'd ask to a real B738 pilot on this forum how is, according to him, the NGX engine-out flight dynamics.

 

Thanks a lot

 

Best Regards

I'd guess one problem would be getting the rudder trim right. In the 'real' sim, you have the yoke movement to guide you for proper trim technique.
