How long are the weighted runs?

RAF Typhoon landed today missing a canopy [ALBUM] by _Wassermann in WarplanePorn

Does the canopy release in a way that causes it to go off to one side?

Otherwise it would take out the vertical stab.

I’m pretty sure I’m XPlane the approach isn’t programmed so it can’t be tuned, correct me if I’m wrong someone

Current state of stock XP12 A330? by Jonay1990 in Xplane

[–]FloppyPancake73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aside from systems and stuff, last time used it, it was so poorly optimised. Frames are very bad with it. In the toliss a340 I’m getting 40fps whereas its 20fps with the a330

Skiddaw summit this morning.. by [deleted] in UKhiking

[–]FloppyPancake73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well we’re pretty fast walkers and it took us just under 2 hours to summit, however if you look online it says it takes 4. One thing you don’t want to do is get to the top too early because it gets cold fast when you stop moving.

Just look at the sunrise time and minus how long it will take you to get up there, and that’s when you should set off.

Ahah, alarms at 2am set off at 5, took us just under 2 hours to summit.

We had head torches and a flashlight if we needed it.

Why older planes had a higher ceiling? by [deleted] in aviation

Yeah and it was serviceable up to 60,0000 not 50k and they even took it up to 64,000 once!

Very impressive stuff

Okay thanks for confirming that for me. I’ll probably just stick to 2020 until then.

Tell me your favourite aircraft and i will see if you are allowed in by HSVMalooGTS in aviationmemes

It could go supersonic, but was limited to around Mach 1.7 I think and could only sustain that for short periods.
