D4n Posted April 19, 2020 Posted April 19, 2020 Hi, what is the max. speed that the tires are limited to?

shaHeen-1 Posted April 19, 2020 Posted April 19, 2020 That should be right more or less. You have no business landing at more than 180. 150-160 is typical I think.
D4n Posted April 19, 2020 Author Posted April 19, 2020 Ah, because of the slats setting, or? Is it true, pilot has to always manually enable+disable slats?

DW2020 Posted April 19, 2020 Posted April 19, 2020 Hi, what is the max. speed that the tires are limited to? I landed at ~200, and tires popped :huh:200 knots is damn fast for a landing, more of a controlled crash at that speed!
J20Stronk Posted April 19, 2020 Posted April 19, 2020 Ah, because of the slats setting, or? Is it true, pilot has to always manually enable+disable slats? (in MiG-29 it's automatic for example) Yeah you have to manually lower flap using the TEF switch. Gear down, Flaps down, Air Brake out is the proper landing config for a light JF-17 (<2500lbs fuel, no stores/2 wingtip PL-5) If you're coming in heavy, Speed brake should be in during descent, out when touched down. Always aerobrake, pop chute below 130 if needed. Touchdown speed should be around 150-160 heavy, 130-140 light.
D4n Posted April 20, 2020 Author Posted April 20, 2020 ah yep, made sense, just was surprised it's named "TEF" instead of simply and logically "flaps".

Shimmergloom667 Posted April 20, 2020 Posted April 20, 2020 Well, TEF is "trailing edge flaps", which is what you deploy manually.

D4n Posted April 21, 2020 Author Posted April 21, 2020 Well, TEF is "trailing edge flaps", which is what you deploy manually. That's a perfectly normal abbreviation . Ah okay, only wondered because I thought no other aircraft manufacturer uses the term "trailing edge flaps". (as there's only one kind of "flaps" on aircraft anyways, or not? I know slats are the one in front) DCS Wishlist: 2K11 Krug SA-4 Ganef SAM, VR-TrackIR icons next to player names in score-chart PvP: 100+ manual player-kills with Stingers on a well known dynamic campaign server - 100+ VTOL FARP landings & 125+ hours AV-8B, F-14 crew, royal dutch airforce F-16C - PvP campaigns since 2013 DCS server-admins: please adhere to a common sense gaming industry policy as most server admins throughout the industry do.

razo+r Posted April 21, 2020 Posted April 21, 2020 There's also leading edge flaps. The term Trailing edge flaps is also common, not as common as flaps but still often used.
LJQCN101 Posted April 22, 2020 Posted April 22, 2020 (edited) Try not exceeding 195kts and not braking at high wheel speeds. BTW the term 'TEF' and 'LEF' are also seen in F-16 and F-18 manuals (T.O. Dash-1 and NFMs). While I have not seen the term 'slat' being used in those manuals. Technically speaking slats are different from LEFs.
