  1. I found I was throttling back to much on flare->touchdown and was receiving a Left Hydraulic Warning. Need to keep that throttle at idle or just above to keep from loosing pressure and thus brakes.
  2. That's the one I've been using. I best go back and review it again.
  3. I'm practicing landings, and they are going well, except for the crashing part when I can't stop before running off the end of the runway. I am using Beta 3 and trying to touchdown at around 150 ias, full flaps, anti-lock is on, Batumi. Throttle is all the way back, airbrakes full and I'm stomping (holding) the W key but nothing seems to happen. Eventually, I panic when hitting the grass and pulling on the emergency brake as I careen through the fence and trees. The brake works when taking off, because I hold them on and throttle up to 85%, and the nose is squashed down until I release them. I even tried popping the canopy up and tossing out loose clothing to no avail. Anybody else? !!!Update!!! I found that I was landing too fast and just ran out of runway. I just have to keep practicing stalling right and letting it fall right on the blackmarks. If I'm to fast, the anti-lock system makes it feel like there are no brakes at all.. !!!Update2!!! And it gets more interesting. Upon flaring->touchdown, I would yank the throttle back. During the rush, I wasn't noticing the Left Hydraulic warning light. When I land with the throttle reasonably back to idle or just above, the pressure stays up.... whala.... plenty of brakes. I have an X52 stick and wasn't paying attention to how far back I needed to go.
