Bf109 - Measurement of Air Speed (Fahrt)

[Varrattu]

Dec-21-2024


Hello all,

enclosed you will find a small single player mission (Tobruk / Desert Wings) to play around with indicated airspeed vs. True airspeed. All lovingly packaged for Christmas in a single ZIP file. Unpack it into your < \Documents\1C SoftClub\il-2 sturmovik cliffs of dover\missions\Single\ > folder ...

As soon as you started in a Bf109F-2 at around 5200m above the Mediterranean Sea a 'HUD' will show you for example


264.81 K 5200 H,m 963.5 QNH kmH: 592.8:444.3 – 444.2 kmhIAS


where

264.81 K..................... = ambient air temperature in Kelvin
5200 H,m.................... = geopotential altitude AMSL
963.5 QNH.................. = "Nautical Height" pressure at sea level
kmH: 592.8................ = true airspeed obtained from game
444.3 – xxx.x kmhIAS = indicated airspeed obtained from game
xxx.x. – 444.2 kmhIAS = indicated airspeed the player has chosen

You can simulate an airspeed indicator calibrated for a sea level temperature between 15° and 40° Celsius. Therefore you press mission menue TAB-4-.

Have fun and

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
