ChuckIV Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 First, please lead me to the thread that may have already reported this bug. I searched but didn't find it as of yet. Secondly, here's what's happening... At 24,000 feet altitude upon spawning, I notice that my boost gauge is at zero lbs. pressure. Pushing the boost lever back and forth has no affect, but I leave it in the max boost position anyway. I open my radiators manually and push the petal to the medal!!! Full throttle!! The RPM settles right at 3,000 RPM at level flight. The boost goes up slightly to 4 lbs. Oil pressure is 120 psi. Temps (oil and water) good. Fuel pump on. Gear and flaps both up. :thumbup: Finally, I take note of the speedometer - 240 knots. :huh: I know that when pressing the F10 map option, the speed is reported as slight higher than the gauge in the actual cockpit, but we are still WAY off top speed. I also notice the radiator flaps have not opened manually - never did open during the speed test. According to the research online, the LF Mk IX is capable of so much more; 404 mph (650 km/h) at 21,000 ft (6,400 m) to be exact. This would be pretty close to 350 knots. I'd be thrilled with even 300 knots level flight. Do I need to install a big nitrous oxide bottle? :megalol: OK, don't beat me up too much, I'm sure this was already reported right? Please guide me to the info - I'd appreciate it very much. ChuckIV "Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few."

Holbeach Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 (edited) 240 kts IAS at 24000' is 355 kts True airspeed, but the ASI is in MPH I got 280 MPH at 16 lb boost, which is 414 mph true airspeed. ..
