Just like the title says. I'll land inverted and just keep sliding long after I should have lost momentum. I notice this pretty frequently. It's always a worry when landing inverted while under fire due to being unable to .ef while sliding.
Other times the plane will be sliding like this and then inexplicably start bouncing. It'll bounce higher and higher until I have enough height to explode and register as a crash.
I don't know if this happens outside of the P38 series.
This film's a good example of the sliding.

Noticed this too specifically in the 38s. It's hard to land our 38s anymore!

There is a very easy fix for this, try not to land inverted.... :banana:
C'mon, someone had to say it... :neener:

Is obviously not S.A.P.P. qualified.......... :noid

This may have happened to me, but I don't remember how or why I was inverted. The only thing I could do was an Alt+F4.
-
bail maybe?

Then you get a DITCHED, not a LANDED, it migt not be a huge issue, but it seems like it could be fixed relatively easily. :cool:

You weren't on fire.............
That may be the problem :noid

Bailing didn't work nor could I tower.

I'm afraid your Luftwaffleness may have clouded your vision. :D

I wouldn't be able to call myself a P38 pilot if I couldn't immolate my plane on command. ;)

turn off the blender behind the pilot's seat and the bouncing will stop when you land inverted. It's the torque from the Margarita Blender Pro 2000 that is causing the bounce.

That worked!! Shoulda known all along. Damn it Shuffler, why'd you get the 2000 and not the 1500? You KNEW the torque was too high on the 2000!
-
Still trying to figure out..... Why would you want to land INVERTED, let alone do it enough to find an inertia bug? :huh
The simple solution, land on your wheels or your belly. :x If you land on your head, you should not have a landing at all.... you should be a red-paint stain on the runway. I could be wrong, but I would be curious to know how many WWI planes were equipped with roll-bars to prevent the canopy from collapsing on enterprising young pilots who could not figure up from down. LOL

Ahh, I see. I had the Margarita Blender Pro 2000 set all the way at 11 during single engine landings to cancel out the increased yaw. So once a safe inverted taxi speed has been established, one should dial the Margarita Blender Pro 2000 down to 3-4 to maintain proper lubrication without the violent bouncing tendencies?

Pfft... Anyone can land right side up. Inverted landings are an art. Something that only a true master can pull off with grace and eptitude.

When flying against the likes of you, it helps not to be sober.

yeah, land on your wheels thats why their there. you shouldn't live through an inverted landing anyways.

That's the problem. You had the blender set to 11 without disconnecting the transducer conductor torque joint first. That's just asking for trouble.

AckAck was insulting you, sir, and it is customary to post a witty, clever, or well worded response to such playful (or otherwise) insults in the AH community. You have failed to do this.

This isn't the forum. If you want to challenge me again to fight you and your squadron, take it to the General Discussion forums or send me a PM.

If you got to mexico use the Calcium oxide stuff, not the fruit, much safer.

Never mind, I confused you with stealth. I'm sure you don't understand the underlying hilarity of that either. ;)

The best part of his B25H talk is when you go look at his stats. With all his chest thumping you would think he would be a little better then 10 kills and 33 deaths in the last two months but I guess not.

What? It seems he enjoys talking about his escapades with the illustrious B25H. Although I would suggest making another topic somewhere else on the subject of B25s please. Inverted landing also goes awry with most Japanese planes too.... umm, just saying :aok

This just happened to me a few minutes ago -- the inability to .ef after landing inverted, not the other stuff posted in the thread. :)

I've been there before too... but in every case (except when it used to happen while gunning for someone else) I was able to ENTER ENTER ENTER and at least get a ditch, instead of having to resort to ALT-F4...
