Su25T Airspeed indicator

[Richtho]

Hi could you help me

 

this is a pic of Su25T airspeed indicator , i don't know what colors meen on this indicator, white,blue,yellow...???

 

i just know red is the Vne (never Exceed speed)

 



 

-I search the Vy speed (best rate of climb)

-and better speed when gliding (without engines)

 

thx for your help

In a real plane the Pilot can set the markers (yellow,blue,white) manually wherever he want and every pilot sets them different. So unfortunately i cant tell to which points there are set.

thx!

I'm pretty sure this has been discussed before about a year ago on these Forums. As I recall, some folks were even changing those coloured indicators in the cockpit? Try a Forum search.....

Hitman and I were working out the dial: Airspeed Indicator Markings. Our conversation starts with post #54 and wanders through the next several pages. There were no definitive answers, just conjecture based on how the aircraft behaves at those marks. In the real aircraft, they can be slid around the dial. In the sim, they are fixed. In fact, I think it's the sim's Su-25 (vanilla) that shows them bunched at one end of the dial--obviously not set up to indicate anything yet. The dial modeled would be pre-flight.

ok thanks, it is ok about colors and sorry my english not very good, not easy for me to find these informations...

 

but do you know it is possible to find some real documentation about Su25T (real flight manual) to find some speeds below, someone in Russia perhaps

 

-Vy (best rate of climb)

-Best speed when motors stop

-Stall speed

-Vfe (flaps extend)

-Vle (landing gear extend)

-....

 

thx

I may have a printed copy (Russian) of something at home, if I can find it. I'll check this evening.

The Su-25T beside it's missing real 3D cockpit, this aircraft is probably the best advanced FM wings aircraft of the whole Sim industry for a medium heavy plane.

-Have fun ! ;)

of course !!

Hope you can find it :thumbup:

 

/ have you got any of the Su-25A/T documents in PDF format, Rich ?

While we are on the subject, can someone verify the the inner reading on the gauge is True Air Speed? The manual states it for the Su-25 but not the Su-25T so I just want to make sure. Thanks

I'm almost certain that it is but, then again, I almost never pay attention to it. It's easy enough to check. Pause. Read the gauge and compare it to the info bar in F2 view. The info bar airspeed is TAS, if senility hasn't set in and I don't remember that correctly either. :)
