Supercruise in a Mig21 ?

[LupinYonder]

Was flying home on the cold war server. I had no tanks and 2xr60m and low fuel at about 5000m. I'd pushed myself past m1 with AB and then backed off just below AB activation on the throttle. I stayed above m1 with stable speed. I love the updated flight model but I'm not sure this should be possible. :huh:

I stayed above m1 with stable speed.

 

This should not be possible, especially at this altitude. Please check that "disable Pitot transonic error" option is checked in Options-Special under MiG-21.

 

If this still exist, please submit the bug to our Mantis (please attach the mission).

In my experience, the Mach meter tends to read a teensy bit high most of the time.

 

Next time, if possible, go to the external view and see if you can hear the aircraft from the front.

In the outside view you can also check the Mach number, TAS, and IAS. However he would need to fly the plane offline in that case, most servers do not permit any outside views.
