General question concerning the F-15, because I have noticed that in real HUD videos, Jane's F-15, and so on...
This seems to be true for all F-15 variants (C/E...)
When going really fast and low, which should not need a lot of AOA in order to create enough lift for level flying, the AOA indicator shows 12°.
The FPM is right under the waterline, and not far away from the gun cross. Maybe 1 to 2° under the waterline, and 3-4° maximum under the gun cross.
AOA indicator still shows 12° though.
Is there a reason for the AOA indication to always be so high ? Even though the FPM shows an AOA of maybe 2° under the waterline ?
Thanks :)
