fitness88 Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 So thrust at launch is weight calculated for all T/O? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Repth Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 So thrust at launch is weight calculated for all T/O? To a certain extent, above a certain weight afterburners are used. Below that weight MIL is used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitness88 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 To a certain extent, above a certain weight afterburners are used. Below that weight MIL is used. Thanks Repth for the clarification...any idea what the weight needs to be for A/B? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flamin_Squirrel Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 45,000 lbs and above MAX is required. Below this you can use MIL, MIL/MAX, or MAX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

majapahit Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 F-18 about to launch looks to me this plane is in A/B. Nope, if you follow the plane to the very end, behind the crew it does not retract gear, end of view (~500 yards), AB blasting not pitching (whatever the weight the F18 can pitch with full AB) seems full Flaps so prob > 45000lbs | VR goggles | Autopilot panel | Headtracker | TM HOTAS | G920 HOTAS | MS FFB 2 | Throttle Quadrants | 8600K | GTX 1080 | 64GB RAM| Win 10 x64 | Voicerecognition | 50" UHD TV monitor | 40" 1080p TV monitor | 2x 24" 1080p side monitors | 24" 1080p touchscreen | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nooch Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 I dont know what its based on except my feelings. flaps on full and throttle to mil. Flaps should be set to half, be it for a field or carrier take off. This will solve your problem. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
