Like the title suggests, are they compatible? I have heard of many people using the PSS Concorde, but I use the SSTSIM version (much better IMO even though it has less systems) and I wonder if they're compatible. I'm aware that I must file for about FL280 untill about 50 - 70 miles out from land, from there I can climb as needed and go up to Mach 2. What I wonder is if RC will constantly tell me "What is your altitude? Your assigned altitude is FL550" or something because of how slow Concorde climbs due to changing weather and winds around FL450 to FL600 and sometimes even descends some

Hi Chris,

 

I have flown the PSS Concorde extensively in RC so you will be okay with the fine SSTSIM version.

 

You're correct in filing for FL260 when having to overfly land. For the KJFK-EGLL hop you can file FL550 or higher as you're soon over the Atlantic.

 

The descent phase into England is tricky as you have to be sub-sonic 35 miles before landfall in Devon but until v5 arrives there's no way to tell RC that so manage your descent rate accordingly.

 

You cannot hand control of the aircraft over to RC as I'm sure you know. Comms can be handed over without problem. Regarding slow climbs as long as you maintain 100fpm or more RC will not shout at you.

 

If you should descend during the climb phase ask for deviations due to turbulence and RC stops monitoring your altitude.

 

Finally, don't forget to select the Speedbird Concorde call-sign.

Thank you sir, I shall try this. I love my concorde, definitely wont be putting her away for a while, and now ATC has made sure of that thanks to RC
