The thing that IL2 seems to have modelled wrong there is that once passed the sound barrier, most planes with a "correct" wing shape regains controll again, buffeting is experienced in near the barrier and goes away once it is passed.

Here is a link to a 262 page. It was the first known surviving pilot who broke the sound barrier.

Haven't done any tests as I don't stay up at night wondering about such esoterica. However, it appears to me that the aircraft do exhibit Mach tuck behavior approaching the Mach.

HT will undoubtedly chime in here with a one word answer for you though.

Tell me, did your Mom model polite behavior? It appears not (to me) because the only time I see you post in here is when you think you've found a new ruler for your AH/IL2 whang measuring contest. Do everyone a favor please:  zip up, youngster and be on your way.

Charles Yeager is the first pilot with telemetry evidence to prove he passed through the sound barrier.  All else is heresay.

Interesting read Wilbus,but I still don't belive the 262 went SS.

There proof there, even the US said it was capable of it, all signs the pilot describes show that it did infact go supersonic.

Wilbus,

there was a fella in britain who "probably" went supersonic in early 46 and a USAAF test pilot in a souped up P47 "probably" went supersonic in early 45.  A Japanese fellow went supersonic off Okinawa in a little rocket plane but he missed his target and he doesnt count anyway.  He died.

Yeager was the first guy to survive and have proof.   Thats all Im saying.  He was first with the data to prove it.

You mean a one word condescending useless answer don't you?

Why do you assume this guy's question is phrased "IL2 models Mach tuck and is therefore a way better flight sim than stinky old Aces High".  Perhaps he is just curious as to whether or not Aces High models Mach tuck.  An unimportant and esoteric feature to be sure, but what is the harm in just giving a straight answer instead of an automatic flippant insult?

Hey, get over yerself, and when yer done, refer to this thread: http://www.hitechcreations.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=51352 For edumacation on what HT's answer means. (pay attention to Puck's response)

And why do you assume that this guy's question isn't phrased this way?

(see i can use the cool bold stuff too!)

What was so bad about that answer 715?  He wrote '1' as a joke, based on something Puck said in another thread.  You may not be aware that by '1' he means yes.  (In C programming, and logic in general, boolean expressions evaluate to '1' if something is true.)  It was a joke, and I'm sure HT didn't mean anything by it.

(I thought it was funny HT. :D )
