CoBlue Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 (edited) @7:22 you can see a drag chute deployment a few meters above the runway, pretty cool IMHO:) (Tu-154, twin-otter...can do it too) Anybody have some info on this procedure for the 21? was it used in emergency only? or was it a standard procedure for short runways? Going to try this in the sim when I have time, hope it works out ok;) Thanx!

pered Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Well clearly the landing gear can take a beating... #stronggear #leatherneckfixplease Gotta catch them all bandits! :joystick:
1.JaVA_Platypus Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 That was quite a hard landing. I expect they needed to do a "bumpy landing" inspection after that. More work for the mechanics, they probably won't love the pilots for landing like this and mistreating 'their' aircraft. ;) I know more soviet aircraft use to do landings like this. It greatly shortens the needed runway length at landings. Happy Flying! :pilotfly:

Then again The Mechanics would probably have me killed for half my landings and all the other thigns i do to there beloved aircraft :music_whistling:
MBot Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 At last Summer's Payerne air show, a Polish Su-22 deployed the chute during the flare. While not so high as in this video, it was still pretty cool :)

Witchking Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 holy crap! That's awesome. I always wondered if you can deploy the chute " in air"...if u can shut off engines and drift down with ur jet hanging from a parachute. lol IIRC,there may be two models (devs correct me if I am mistaken) and the chute logic may only work once the aircraft is on ground? I know there was the mention of a separate taxi physics model....don't know if the chute is connected to "contact physics model with the ground" WHISPR | Intel I7 5930K | Nvidia GTX980 4GB GDDR5 | 16GB DDR4 | Intel 730 series 512GB SSD | Thrustmaster WARTHOG | CH Pro Pedals | TrackIR4 pro | |A-10C|BS2 |CA|P-51 MUSTANG|UH-1H HUEY|MI-8 MTV2 |FC3|F5E|M2000C|AJS-37|FW190|BF 109K|Mig21|A-10:SSC,EWC|L-39|NEVADA|

Frischi234 Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Was used for short runways, but with checking the systems after such a landing. only in German :
Witchking Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Something like this? :D LOL! nice! Did u notice drag? any sort of sluggishness in aircraft performance? How long was the chute open before it got ripped apart? :p WHISPR | Intel I7 5930K | Nvidia GTX980 4GB GDDR5 | 16GB DDR4 | Intel 730 series 512GB SSD | Thrustmaster WARTHOG | CH Pro Pedals | TrackIR4 pro | |A-10C|BS2 |CA|P-51 MUSTANG|UH-1H HUEY|MI-8 MTV2 |FC3|F5E|M2000C|AJS-37|FW190|BF 109K|Mig21|A-10:SSC,EWC|L-39|NEVADA|
golani79 Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 I didn´t notice any different behavior in flight performance - also the chute wasn´t ripped of. I was flying with 651 knots and performing different manoeuvres though. It has been a while since this "incident" :D Wasn´t sure if it was a bug or not so I´ve posted it in the general bug forums but I got no response. Haven´t tried it since ^^ >> DCS liveries by golani79 <<
frumpy Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 @frischi It says touchdown should be at 260...280 km/h. I wonder how this works? The only way that I found to get the plane safely down is to approach at 380 km/h, 350 over the treshold and touchdown at about 320..330. Otherwise I cannot see the runway during approach and vertical speed drastically increases at low speed.

Otherwise I cannot see the runway during approach and vertical speed drastically increases at low speed. You're probably too heavy. Try to land with no weapons and 700l fuel. I usualy touchdown around 290 km/h, works fine for me :D
