Works in a fully loaded 190F8 with one step flaps and Wep, unless the base is at 5-7k alt where the supercharger don't work.

I'm having trouble finding pictures of a P47 fully loaded on a grass or dirt runway on the internets.

That building has been planes there to be the new Ensign eliminator. Only the best pilots will be able to fly over or around it in a fully loaded jug.

Time to separate the men from the boys.  :old:

Using a Jug is cheating, they have wings !

The 190s use only the sidesteps.

Isn't there two ends to every runway? What is at the other end? Or is this like that old condom excuse...... :O

Hmmmm, I knew if I looked for it behind my seat I'd find the other end of the runway......

Meh...it's no big deal unless you forget it's there. Even the biggest heaviest fully loaded Jug (N) can manage to get off the runway.

If you are at near sea level and you cannot clear object at end of runway on auto take off its to close and  should be removed.  I don't care what the load out is. :old:

I can't fault HT for adding a little challenge. Small fields simulate makeshift frontline bases that would've had real life challenges in combat. You can't always mow down twelve thousand feet of runway.
