Me 163 Sim Shenanigans
 
With CavemanMax as my witness, I have successfully landed the Me 163 in Simulator. And not only have I landed it, I have taken off with it. It took a good seven tries, but I finally did it. Take that, science. What shenanigans have you pulled off in simulator? If there is a plane that is harder to land, what is it? I must lay my ill-trained hands on them.

The most impressive part is that you took off again:cool:

I found this fairly easy to land to be honest, much easier than i thought. The take off was a bit nerve wracking though. It seems to be able to keep a decent speed without stalling and the overall view is good. It was all about keping the wings level. Once your speed is so low you can then let it drop :D

congrats on landing and taking off with it, your part of an elite/suicidal few.

Zero!! .. lol .. that night I did all the aeromanuvers in the plane .. ran it out of feul and ammo .. and glided ever so gently to the ground .. however... I exploded due to some Brit's house being on my "Runway"... ok .. it was road...but why is there a house on the road??

Personally, I found that landing that thing to be pretty easy. Take off was a failure though; the right wing tipped over and I kind of spun around in a circle for a few seconds until the wing broke off. And to add insult to injury, after the wing broke off, it blew up.

What a jerk plane.

The landings are what get me. I'm so used to, you know...a plane with wheels. Moreso, the IL-10. I can pretty much drop that thing on to the ground, so I get used to being rough with my airplanes. Not so in the '163.
