Thanks again for the tips chaps, invaluble
EZ1 i normally fly with my rad about 70% closed, it seems fine at that setting ? Temperature normally sits at around 100
I do have another question with regards to airspeed; Just flown the mission on campaign where you fly as #2 to the wing-co to take photos of the jerry airfield near calais. You both fly at low level all the way to the French coast. Now if i am flying manually he slowly draws away from me. If i switch to autopilot he manages to catch up again. What am i doing wrong ? I have -
- Airscrew in coarse pitch
- Rad about 70% closed (temp sitting comfortably on about 100 IIRC)
- Fuel rich (assuming it's rich, if i switch it back the other way it slows down)
- Elevators trimmed so it's almost flying level (apart from the torque which needs a bit of left aerlieon)
- Throttle pretty much at 100%
When the autopilot takes over no levers change position ? However those exhaust traces do disappear. Next time somebody is flying a spit would they mind quickly switching the cockpit off and seeing if they still get the slight smoke from the exhaust ?
Thanks again
NB - Bagged two 109's and a 110 yesterday for the first time flying with CEM. Nice feeling
