*** Posted by TIGER *** Hi Rapier You don't have to pull 9Gs to achieve the best turn rate. It should be remembered that the SU27, that I am very familiar with, can achieve the best turn rate 22' per second at a speed between 650-700 pulling just 6 Gs. So if you can in F4 to pull 7Gs for 19' per second at a constant speed why don't you do ...

*** Posted by TIGER *** Hi Rapier In real life you use no more than 9.5 Gs. Run can confirm you that. Only russians uses to avoid a missile more than 9Gs. But that is not a good solution. At more than 9Gs the plane can enter in a very bad sit. and you are dead already, you loose to much speed I mean energy (turn rate) , you can be desorientated

*** Posted by TIGER *** Hi Rapier You are right about AoA but you should know that the range from 29-32 it was designed to show the AoA in an uncontroled flight so that you know you are in a deep stall. You should also know when you design an indicator you must let a little range for safety. A car with an indicator at 220 km/h the max speed of ...

*** Posted by michell reich *** [Hi RUN, What was your best moment in an F16 and what was your worst nightmare. Have you ever come close to any mid air collisions? Also, what's the most G you have pulled and for how long? Thanks. Rapier ]

*** Posted by run *** Yes, but a lot of times it doesn't do the trick and the pilot has to rock the aircraft out with the MPO RUN [Yes sorry 32 not 36. So what your saying is that the FLCS is actually helping the pilot to regain control of a potentially out of control situation. It makes sense for the FLCS to do this. Rapier]

*** Posted by Rapier *** [Why are you writing about 36' ? You said it said 32' in the f4 man. The normal range is -5 - +25 degrees AOA, which means that anything outside is out of control. At the initial stage of an out of control situation the a/c can actually be within these limits. Above 25 degrees AOA both horizontal tails are commanded to ...

*** Posted by RUN *** [I have been a kind of tricking, while I already knew the story around the ''danish flag Draken''! Since this, i'll here start up the explanations: The National coloured Draken was a tribute to the homecoming national soccer team, when arriving from the World-cup in Mexico (year?). Having kissed the finals, this was the ...
