Hey Whitey you probally can't get it to hold altitude because the plane is probally to heavy. Most planes can only reach normal cruise after losing some fuel so try that otherwise I dunno what's wrong.

I'd be really interested in learning to fly this thing properly to be honest... ...I can't get it to go to a level attitude during cruise...the least I can get is 10 degress up pitch to maintain altitude.


The bone has a higher AOA than that of a Fighter.You might be doing it right!!!!!!!! 8)

Those are very nice shots Whitey, and a nice landing. I seem to fall through the runway on all my landings. Thats not a bug, thats my awesome flying skills  ;D

Well, with full flaps, the B-1Bs stall speed is 90 IAS...you should be aiming to hit the ground at 100 IAS. ;)  I just give it ful power as I'm flaring and it works for me...LOL...doesn't work that way in airliners...they just start climbing staraight away. ;D

I doubt I'm doing it right, Bone184... :(...I need to keep full afterburners to keep at Mach .84... ::)...I've tried all this stuff about fuel ratios...didn't make any difference.

Whitey,

The cruise figure is incorrect in the aircraft.cfg. The actual cruise is lower in the Mach 0.71-2 range.
