Cant Land Kills / rearm and takeoff!!??
« on: November 22, 2003, 07:00:06 PM »
Hello,

This is the second time that it has happened! I land a KILL at an airfield, go to Re-arm pad, Re-arm ok and then taxi out to runway: but, I cannot take off again!  I have throttle all the way on, but my p51d cant pick up any speed . Maybe 5 miles an hour.   I checked flaps ( they're up) brake is off . Checked CTRL D for damage and everything is in the Green!!  Anyone have any idea what's happening???  I would really appreciate it.  

Oh yeah, I did notice that this ONLY happens after Ive gotten a Kill too. I Tried re-arming without having a Kill in sortie and its Fine. !!!  This one's racking my brain. Anyone ever hear of this one!??


Thanks  Alot,


drums: :)

okay.   I did check throttle and it was up full !  I did not actually look at rpm's - but the sound indicated the engine reffing up like usually happens!  I just couldnt pick up speed!!

Oh yeah, one thing I forgot to say in original Posts  -   I'm not sure I returned to the same Base that I took off from!! Does that matter?  


TY for reply,
