F-16 Throttle Response

Love this aircraft.  However I have just one problem and that is when reducing the throttle the speed takes forever to decrease, and it taxis like a race horse.

Is there a way to make the speed and the engines respond quicker, lower the taxi speed?

Hello Steve,
yes you want to edit .air file table 1505. See the explanation at:

Air File Board, post March 2003

See page 3:

Hello Steve,
I'm Ian not George.
You need to update AirEd.ini quarterly from Herve's site.
latest says (its not really correct)
1505=*!Turbine Corrected Fuel Flow vs CN2,tbldb
1505h=Corrected Fuel Flow (x) vs CN2% (y)|FF(pph) = Thrust_Reference * F1505(CN2) * Delta_t/sqrt(Theta_t)|Shape affects spool rate|Not in TurboProps (KingAir)
