Durrani ASDurrani@worldnet.att.net, ASDurrani@doctormail.com Original model by D. Holthausen Modified by Tom Gibson Flight dynamics by Mike Vidal *********************************************************************** Mike Vidal's Flight Report Takeoff: Can be conducted with one or two notches of flaps, two notches are better for shorter fields. Rotation (Vr) is at 105 knots with lift off at 110 to 115. Vzf is at 150 knots. Climbs best at 160 to 180 and will yield about 1500 to 2000 fpm. Landing: Approaches, full flaps, at 125 to 135 knots with about 55 to 60% power. You have to watch her, since if you pull back the power back too much, she'll sink on you like mad. I would suspect that the real one would behave the same way. Please note that to achieve a realistic flight regimen, you must set Flight Control Realism to 8, from the Sim, Realism and Reliability FS5 Menus. Specifications: (FS5.1 airspeed indicator is calibrated in KNOTS!) F-27 Cruising Speed: 298 mph (259 knots) Maximum Speed (Vne): 325 mph (283 knots) Stall Speed (clean): 100 knots Stall Speed (full flaps): 90 knots Range: 1082 miles (with 52 passengers) ======================================================================= For Flight Simulator 5.X with Flight Shop, the instructions: Copy the F27piav2.air to your Flight Simulator "Pilots" subdirectory Copy all the F27piav2.*af files to your Flight Simulator "Texture" subdirectory For Flight Simulator 95/98 with Converter, the instructions: Convert the F27piav2.air file ======================================================================= *********************************************************************** Now the legal stuff: THIS AIRPLANE IS THE PROPERTY OF THE AUTHORS, AND CANNOT BE RE-SOLD OR PACKAGED WITH ANY PRODUCT FOR SALE, WITHOUT THE EXPRESS WRITTEN PERMISSION OF THE AUTHORS.
