Unrealistic prop engine shutdown

Postby Jamie » Wed Mar 26, 2008 9:14 pm

I have noticed that many planes do not shut down realistically and keep windmilling for an extended period of time as if they have no compression .  I thoroughly enjoy shtting them down and re-starting and would love to make shutdown more true to life . Can that be done in the aircraft.cfg propeller section without changing the rate at which they respond to throttle inputs ?
Thanks ,
Jamie

That would be correct for turbo-props....but not piston engines.

I asked this question a while ago and was told the adjustment is in the airfile.
