February 27, 20215 yr Very nice update, but i'm having some problems landing. The stick-pusher activates often in the final landing fase and flare. Should this system not be suppressed when landing? I'm configured according to the landing performance charts: gross weight 28000lb, speed 115kn, flaps 35, down the glideslope. Maybe i'm missing something?

Maybe i'm missing something? I have done 5 flights so far and have not yet had an issue. Mind you I fly the glide slope at around 125 Kts and reduce power just before touch down. Silly question. Are you disconnecting AP before flair.

Silly question. Are you disconnecting AP before flair. Yes I disconnect the autopilot (via assigned joystick button) at a few hundred feet altitude. And i could do the approach a little faster, but it also should be doable at around 115kts, because the stall speed at this weight is around 85kts or so. So enough margin I think.

Actually if you check the charts Vref at Flaps 20 is 114 Kts so you are far to slow thats at 24000 LBs

March 2, 20215 yr Got an e-mail earlier about upgrade #2 I'm going to try it out after i do this zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!.
March 9, 20215 yr This is an excellent creation. A little over 20 years ago I flew a Saab (B & B+) for a few years. Also, about 7 years ago my employer put me through(again) the full initial course at FlightSafety as even though I would not be flying it again I would once again be familiar with it. This has become one of my favourite aircraft for XP11. LesSaab has really hit it out of the park with this creation.
March 29, 20215 yr Me too, this is an excellent aircraft. 🙂 [Pc Intel i3-4160 3,6 GHz, 8 GB di RAM, GeForce RTX-3060 12 GB, Win10 Home 64 bit]
