Antonov 148

[Annalisa]

Hi folks.
I recently downloaded Dimitri Samborski's beautiful AN148 model from the downloads section and have been delighted with the aircraft on the whole, apart from one thing...; After begining descent I found that the plane has real difficulties slowing down to required speeds, even with the speed hold selected. On my first attempt I had to perform the whole descent and landing phase of the flight with the spoilers and flaps fully deployed and even then it was difficult to get the speed below 290 knots!
Does anyone know what values I would have to change in the cfg file to change this? Apart from this it's a really beautiful model and flies well. Just a pity about the decceleration problems...

I would not recommend using speed hold while descending. Most other planes that I have tried it with have the same issue when using a speed hold/autothrottle system on descent.
Just manually control the thrust, and also, make sure that you are not descending too steep! If you need to, start your descent earlier for future flights.
