I have to confess that I've become spoiled with most of the airplanes that I've flown in FS.

I've become too used to digital readouts of, among other things, the radar altitude and 

mach speed.   

 

Flysimware has done a simply amazing job with the Lear; it's amazing.    But I still have a

way to go in getting re acclimated to the old school, analogue instrumentation, and the Lear's

airspeed indicator is unlike that of any aircraft that I've flown.    I still haven't quite figured out

the correct way to read the mach indicator.    Is the actual mach indication at the very top of

the curved drum, at the "mach" designator, or is it at the red notch between the 330 and 340

kt indication on the main dial?

 

I'm also a bit confused regarding the radar altimeter on the attitude indicator.   When I

have it turned on, and am practicing approaches and landings, it doesn't seem to be indicating 

anything.   The numbers don't move, nor does the needle.    Mind you, I haven't started

practicing ILS approaches just yet.  Is it because I don't have any ILS frequency tuned

into the NAV?

 

Any help would be much appreciated!

+1    Indeed.  Im going to start a flight right now and check this out.
