... fantastic general purpose desktop simulator for stall warning failures. Period.

 

I’ve hidden the off topic post and replies. Culprit warned.

the culprit may have misunderstood the o.p. post, see below.

The point of the OP is not stalls itself, but rather the fact that there are failures of the stall horn in X-Plane, as he clearly states. So your post that was hidden really didn't make any sense.

I just wanted to ... Thanks for pointing that out, so I don't need to do it myself.

thanks for pointing that out, I must have misunderstood his message then. and still do. Without your addition I found his message not clear.

FlyingCarpet, perhaps you can shed some light: is x-plane not simulating stall warnings properly or is it demonstrating a missing/faulty stall warning horn? I have never experienced a situation like that in my own real world flying but know that stall horns can malfunction if clogged. did you try to illustrate a non functioning stall horn? that was not immediately clear to me. perhaps a language issue. hence my referral to stall/spin training in other sims in general.

You simply have to watch the video properly, and you will recognize it yourself.

However, I generally hope and even pray that such (and other) failures don't happen IRL, but it's good to be prepared beforehand. That's the reason why airliner pilots are practicing failures in their level D sims and not (e.g.) a flight from their hometown to St. Maarten or doing sightseeing flights.

The failure of a stall warning indicator is not particularly troublesome for most pilots. We train to recognize several signs of an impending stall including a general nose high attitude, decreasing airspeed, and buffeting as airflow separates from the wing. That being said, a stall can occur at any airspeed and pitch attitude given the right conditions. The plane in the video, however, is equipped with the best stall warning indicator around…the angle of attack indicator.

But to the point of the post…the “other” sim does not allow for such failures. One of the best options for failures in X-Plane, though, is that it allows failure of individual navaids through the instructor station. The ability to fail say a specific localizer or glide slope as a student is shooting an instrument approach is incredibly useful and more representative of the types of failures we deal with in real life.

Correct 😉.

... as it already was showcased here.

... simulator ? I know some flight schools use x-plane but why none of the "level D" simulators that the airlines use? if P3D is good enough for military "adventures" training, why does no airline simulator use x-plane with all its FAA approval?

You don't seem to enjoy MSFS very much, if you are lurking around in this forum all the time. Why do you even care where X-Plane is used and where not?* In flight schools, students also can train failures beforehand on a simulator (be it level D or not) like ... name censored 😁.

* I for one don't care at all where MSFS is used, and also don't lurk around in the MSFS forum, as I'm enjoying X-Plane much - for exact the reasons I'm showing here.

why do I even use more than 1 simulator, how dare I!

glad you brought up that other simulator in the sacred x-plane thread, so I don't have to.

And excuse me master, I should have gotten your permission first to ask anything x-plane related in an x-plane forum that I might be interested in, outside the MSFS box. won't happen again, I mean asking you anything.

This guy leaves Austin feeling sore.

Is the sunlight on the dashboard a bug?  It would seem to be coming from directly behind the aircraft, which means it would normally be blocked.

Just something I noticed right away in that video.

You seem to want to make a fool of yourself. You have no clue of the design of the Lancair (windows etc.) and the position of the sun in the video. Please continue in this direction, if you want to make a complete twit out of you 😂.

Howsoever, off topic alarm.
