how to land on sim????
 

can anybody describe in detail how to land sucessfully in sim mode???thx

Line yourself up with the runway, flying past it in the opposite direction to your eventual landing path, at around 750 metres and drop throttle to 35%. Extend combat flaps and once past the runway enter a ~30° bank towards the runway, dropping altitude and speed until you've turned 180° and are now heading back towards the runway at around 500 metres and no more than 350kph. Once below 300kph drop flaps to take-off setting and extend gear. You're now looking to maintain a descent rate of 5-10 metres/second, and to drop off speed to around 250kph until at around 300 metres and three runway lengths from the runway threshold.

Drop flaps to landing and continue in at this descent rate, adding nose-up trim steadily as you approach. As you cross the threshold you should be steadily backing off the throttle to around 20%, and at 30m or so off the runway begin to pull back on the stick to flare. In most prop fighters you're looking to touch down at around 180kph, with a descent rate of no more than 5 metres per second. This will vary slightly from a/c to a/c, but for the Hurricane, which is an excellent choice to practice in, these figures should be pretty much dead on. Remember to control speed with pitch and sink rate with throttle; this may seem backwards but it's by far the most efficient way to control a landing.


NB: Hurricane in actuality only has the one stage of flaps, but I don't recall whether this is true of BoP as I've been playing 1946 for some time now. If it is you should drop these at the time I suggest dropping to take-off flaps.

thx a lot!but my biggest problem is not to flip over and crash when im already on ground!how can i avoid that???because when i roll along the runway and have about 60kph i suddenly tilt forward and crash!

that happens to me too. i thought it was a stick thing but it does it with my pad aswell

Ahhh, the infamous tipping problem. What I do is turn my flaps to raised when I'm fully on the ground and let go of everything but the brakes. 100% brakes and it will tip up a little bit, but not flip completely over. Do not use the elevator once you're on the ground.

thx!im going to try it now!lets see if it works

Also the Spitfire tips easily.

Some planes are easier than others but just a few additional tips, Apply rudder as you are slowing down and fire guns to give you some recoil till you get the hang of it. No brakes at the moment on Xbox joysticks (PS3? not sure) but you do have brakes on the gamepad, never tried them as I use a stick.

There's not much you can do with most fighters unless you use regular controller layout, not aviator or flight stick. There are no wheel brakes on any mode but wireless controller standard. There's a chance they won't tip, but usually they will.

Sturmovik's don't tip over, neither do most of the bombers or the ju-87, also the bf-110 is easy to land. With these planes pull back on the stick to slow them down, it takes a while but they won't tip over.

I tried to use the a-20 in CTA mode today and found out it has no brakes in any layout. It will keep rolling for miles like it's on a sheet of ice.

A-20's the bomber right? Then yes, it does have brakes. Your game must've been glitched...
