Dr. Anti-Vehicle Posted June 1, 2021 Posted June 1, 2021 I wish the Hornet behaves the same at touchdown as other planes so that we can keep the nose up for a while as air brake.
Swift. Posted June 2, 2021 Posted June 2, 2021 Firstly, shouldnt really be doing that in hornet. You risk hitting the stabs on the deck. Secondly, this is an issue with reverse ground effect under full flaps, not a wheel friction thing. You wont see it happening under half flap 476th Discord | 476th Website | Swift Youtube Ryzen 5800x, RTX 4070ti, 64GB, Quest 2
Bunny Clark Posted June 2, 2021 Posted June 2, 2021 NATOPS specifically states that aerobraking in the Hornet is not recommended. When landing at an airfield the proper technique is to get the nose wheel on the ground right away, then slow with speedbrake, full aft stick deflection, and wheel brakes as needed. 3 Oil In The Water Hornet Campaign.

I'm assuming itll be fixed in the upcoming FM corrections. 476th Discord | 476th Website | Swift Youtube Ryzen 5800x, RTX 4070ti, 64GB, Quest 2

This bug annoys me more than anything else so I really hope they can fix it soon. Btw what is "FM" corrections?
