Broke the sound barrier :D :D
« on: March 15, 2008, 07:23:37 PM »
WOO!! WOO!!

I'm sure I'm not the first, but I'm pleased with myself... :D :D

Offline Training Arena, 20K air spawn, Me-163, Fuel burn multiplier set to 0.001, Wind settings South to North (or was it North to South) 127mph, +127mph wind rise at all altitudes...

Anyways,





I haven't worked out how to post a film yet.  And there was probably no point in me posting this here, I know, but it's 12:20 AM, I should be studying for my GCSEs, and meh.

<S>

EDIT:  BTW my top speed was approximately Mach 1.22

I've gotten to Mach 1.15 before without any tweaks to the plane or wind. Did it in TA, climbed to 70K, leveled off, went to mach 0.90 in level flight, then dove. Someone did break Mach 2, but they went offline and set wind to max, and all sorts of other helpful things.

What does wind have to do with it?  Mach is an airspeed.

Um updraft lets you climb alot faster. Downdraft makes you go faster when diving.

I didn't know you could create up/down drafts in AH?!  By the way a downdraft while diving is not going to make it any easier to break the sound barrier since (like was already mention) it's based on your air speed.  All a down draft is going to do is make you run out of altitude quicker.

The max speed wind can be set to is 127mph. A 127mph downdraft will make you lose alt alot faster but it will also give you airspeed since the wind is pushing you down in your dive.

Yes but it will not be variable. It will be a sustained wind.
