August 16, 200619 yr I was able to take a closer look at the aircraft in FSX and noticed something. When I put the brakes on the tires will lock up. I haven't looked through any of the CFG files but does the sim now recognize between rolling friction and static friction? Chris Miller

August 16, 200619 yr Thats what I was wondering too because I can get some massive slides out of the baron. Chris Miller

As a test, I was off-roading, spray flying up behind me, in the rain, but going in a relatively straight line. I could turn without getting too crazy, but I came onto the runway at speed and tried to turn, I started sliding sideways right back off the other side of the runway.Like someone said before...Don't ever ever fly with me. :(
August 16, 200619 yr Did anyone notice that the prop spray deflects to the right going in both directions on the runway? That means it is correctly blowing with the propeller's spiraling slipstream. I wonder if a plane with counter-rotating props will have the right engine's spray going to the left.
August 17, 200619 yr One other change I noticed in the Beaver, if you change your airplane registration number the number on the panel changes too.
