Landing Me262 on a CV n taking off again
« on: October 06, 2001, 08:33:00 PM »
Tried offline for about 2 hours, touched down 3 times but was still doing 40mph off the other end of the CV.  If anyone figures out how to or has done it already, please tell me how, approach speed, flap settings etc.  Thanx

I've never messed around with the wind settings but in offline mode, couldn't you increase the wind speed at CV altitude and then simply point the CV into the wind?

You'd be able to land it then, I should think.

I took off from CV, Landed to CV and took off again with Me-262 though I was having only 25% fuel.

Takeing off is easiest part: Keep brakes on while turbines spool up, release brakes and just before end of deck flaps couple notch down. When airborne take gears up and let plane sink almost to the water and gain some speed.

Landing was easy, Come in at low alt with 120-130mph speed and full flaps and watch your speed. Then just let it almost stall to the deck, cut throttle and keep brakes on.

First I tried to reverse to the re-arm pod by using little throttle but that doesn't work. Good thing is those 30mm have quite nice recoil so I gave a little throttle, pulled the trigger and watched how plane rolled backwards thought I couldn't get enough speed to roll to the wires but far enough to take off again   :)

Of course I filmed whole thing but looks like filmviewer has little bug: It crashes to desktop in 10-15 secs.
EDIT: Filmed again in Mindanao map; Doesn't crash anymore  :)

Point LINK, righ click and "Save as".

btw I didn't mess with wind but I trimmed planes nose up. Helps both in landing and take-off.

Yes Kweassa. The gun-shake isn't just cosmetic, the recoil is an FM effect.

That's just funny considering the various meanings of 'staga' in finnish slang.

"Staga" is a slang-word for ice-hockey stick.
In wider view it can also mean (baseball-)bat but originally it was only used when talking about icehockey equipments.
