Type of improvement: Ground Behaviour Tuning (add propwash)

Explanation of proposals: propwash is missing or its very weak. Where a real propeller plane is taxiing and/or flying, part of the airflow in the tail surfaces comes from the propeller, even if the plane is stopped on the ground. This airflow is proportional on propeller rpm in fixed propellers.

Benefits: more realistic ground control and behaviour on flight. It gives more control over the plane specially on the ground by applying gas and rudder for turns, making differential brakes less necessary. It also helps avoid nose flipping when applying brakes, by the usual procedure to taxi with stick in full back position to make that propwash atuate over stabilizer downwards and the tail of the plane "glues" to the ground.


PS: I've read that taxiing behaviour is being tuned, but did not read anywhere that propwash was scheduled to be taken into account.

+1 i think that it can make much more realistic the control of the plane in the ground
