Holly cow, a P-51 at speed 150 sinks at 4200 feet per minute. How do I reach the field at this rate?
I went offline and experimented with the propeller speed control "+" and "-" on numeric keypad. My descent rate decreased to 2200 feet per minute with the propeller in the low rpm, low drag setting.
Absolutely essential info when ur engine goes on vacation.

good, because in the previous version lowering prop RPM was increasing drag (I know What The %^$#@?), but it was like this. Usually in the pony I set Vglide at 170KIAS, maybe 150 is too slow and u are on the back side of the curve.
