Hello to all "pilots" out there!
I have 4 questions about FS2002.
1. How to fly a helicopter at cruise or max speed not    to lose altitude?

2. I have G-effects turned on but I have never experience any blackouts or
redouts (not even with saab JA37 Viggen) and I've done some really scary moves
with high airspeed, but the plane is allways the first to break down ("air craft overstressed").
I was thinking that airplane (saab JA37 Viggen) can take much more pressure than human?
Anybody knows whay there is no black and redouts?

3. Now I'm asking how for instance can you drop bomb or tank on airplane? Which key you have to press?

4. And my last but not least question is if there is possible (when you have created a fligt)
to stop at airport refuel and carry on?

Thanks for your time!
LP Marinec!

Kinda confusing, you saying you want to know how to get at max speed without losing altitude? If so, just takeoff without going in any direction, and just ai your nose little bit downward, you'll start gaining speed and just keep it at that pitch.

I have G-effects turned on but I have never experience any blackouts or  
redouts (not even with saab JA37 Viggen) and I've done some really scary moves  
with high airspeed, but the plane is allways the first to break down


Instead of a military plane, try a civil plane, go into a steep drop, and before it overstresses, pull back up while going at full speed. If not just turn crashes off.

Now I'm asking how for instance can you drop bomb or tank on airplane? Which key you have to press?


No, only in Combat Flight Simulator

And my last but not least question is if there is possible (when you have created a fligt)  
to stop at airport refuel and carry on?


Somewhat, when you land at an airport, the only way you can refuel, is to go under your plane, and set your fuel to full again. No little guys come and help you out. :-/

The blackouts/redouts has to be turned on in realism settings.
Helicopters are fickle machines, I'd recommend doing the hoversafe academy course (its free), and by the end of it you'll be a great helo pilot (there is a link in the links page here).
Also with the refueling issue, if you can see a yellow square with a small black in the middle of one edge pull onto that, and it'll refuel you ;)
