7e7 unreal?

Postby digant » Wed Aug 18, 2004 10:31 pm

I've been flying the 7E7 and I don't think its very realistic, is it?  What does everyone else think?

In my experience, I can rotate at about 155 but my climb is very slow.  On descent, if I try a VS of -1800, I have to use full speed breaks to keep from accelerating out of control.  And on landing, I find myself gliding easily even at 130kts, even having to push myself down onto the runway.

As a matter of fact, my favorite trick was missing the runway (too high) at 140, and so, too tired to go-around, I hit full left rudder to see what would happen.  I swung left about 30 degrees but continued to glide over the runway with ease.   ???

What is everyone else's opinion?

As has been commented before ...  It's too early to tell how real/unreal the model is, before the real plane has flown.
