I know it exist as a file to download, but I am unable to find it. Anyone have a link to this crazy trip through mach3? Thanks.

 

Also one question, Is the Mustang the best plane to achieve the mach3 with that download?

 

Moe

I have the file I think your looking for 

 

named 'HAXIGE - 300,000 ft'  but can't upload a zip file here give me a minute and i'll upload it somewhere and post a link

 

Hope this works:

What does this do, start you off at 300,00 ft so you can nosedive to hit mach 3? 

yes exactly, it also allows you to get several other rewards on the way down 

Thanks AirWayMan

The HAXIGE file provided by AirWayMan is for FSX, and NOT for MS Flight.

Correction:  the file uses FSX type files, but HAXIGE has hacked them to be used as a saved game in MS Flight.  Took me a while to figure it out, but HAXIGE explains how to use it and where to put the files in his blogspot, here:

 

http://haxige.blogspot.com/

 

Don't bother trying to download his zip file from that page because it is a dead link.  In fact, the blogspot hasn't been updated for about a year and a half.

 

Using this "saved game" you start at 300,000 feet in an Icon A5.    After you're in the saved game, pause and switch to the Mustang.  I got the Mach 2 & 3 badges on the way down, along with a couple of others. 

 

I had already achieved Mach 1 in the regular free flight mode by placing the Mustang over the peak of Mauna Loa, then climbing to the Mustang's service ceiling and pointing it straight down with full throttle over the ocean.  The G's are massive on the pullout...real world would have destroyed the pilot and the plane. 

 

Thanks for the file, AirWayMan

On the Career page of MS Flight, I found some interesting and spectacular statistics after the fall from the fringe of space:

 

Max Positive G-force:  42.2 Gs

 

Max Negative G-force:  22.3 Gs

 

Highest Altitude:  303,261 feet

 

Fastest Forward Speed:  2,173 knots

 

Fastest Reverse Speed:  946 knots

 

That reverse speed was achieved in the first 100,000 feet while the plane was least controllable.

Hah!  I ran the saved game again, this time with more control input during the first 200,000 feet and found that my Reverse Speed record has increased to 1,242 knots.  That's close to Mach 2 in reverse.

 

All the other stats remained unchanged.

Thanks Dean. Sounds like I'm going to have fun with that.

Dead link within his link.

Moe--

 

I clearly stated in my post that gave you the link to HAXIGE, that the download link on that site is a dead link.  You have already been given the necessary files in the link provided by AirWaysMan (the first answer to your original question).

 

The ONLY thing you need to do on the link I gave you is READ the info provided by HAXIGE, which tells you how and where to install those files along with some helpful hints on how to play that saved game.

 

Read it fully and carefully and follow the instructions.

Sorry about that, Poor punctuation. I meant to type.

 

Dead link within his link?

 

To confirm you meant his link on HAXIGE site was dead, and not airwayman's posted link.

 

Sorry if I aggravated you Dean.
