Big Nuts Posted November 30, 2017 Posted November 30, 2017 Just wondering, does the av8b suffer from the nasty wing over tendencies as other harriers? Afaik, in the hover, due to intake compressor drag, the harrier could roll over suddenly which would tend to be fatal. Theres a good discussion of it on the pprune site.
tusler Posted November 30, 2017 Posted November 30, 2017 I think they fixed a lot of that when they went to the B model. I remember what your talking about though. This one we have has all kind of tendancies if you let pitch or roll get out of hand while hovering. Ask Jesus for Forgiveness before you takeoff :pilotfly:!

Boeing incorporated a computerize system to help the pilot with that. It is called the SAAHS. "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning." "The three most dangerous things in the world are a programmer with a soldering iron, a hardware type with a program patch and a user with an idea."
Big Nuts Posted December 1, 2017 Author Posted December 1, 2017 Can we still get into trouble with that flight regime or is the saahs upto the challenge? Cheers.
