Taking the Dornier for a ride..
Posted: Thu Mar 02, 2006 7:57 pmAt some point on the descent into Reno (I recommend it!) stable at FL190. Please excuse the FSPassengers stuff in the corner.
I don't think it matters though.

Posted: Fri Mar 03, 2006 6:48 amThat's kind. People got scared by excessive g-forces on landing, which I think was caused by the nose jumping up in the air, which always seems to happen with this model, though I guess it could be to do with the autospoiler. Also it chewed me out cos I only left enough fuel for 9 minutes of flying! But I bet the company execs liked my shrewd fuel estimation ;)

Posted: Mon Mar 06, 2006 8:20 amprop speed regulates; the prop speed 
by changing the angle of attack of the prop blades, as you lower the prop speed the prop gets a better "bite" in the air.
For the most efficent flying is going up to about 21000 feet (i think for the Dornier) and lowering the prop speed (the plane will go slower, but range increases dramatically. You also need to fix the mixture and lower the throttle.
