You can skid at any speed, the maximum brake force doesn't decrease with speed. Just go to any parking lot in the US, wait a few minutes and somebody will slam on the brakes and skid, even if it's really brief due to ABS. Skid at any speed indeed, whenever the static friction is exceeded, like on ice for example. As indicated previously, what doesn’t square is why in some missions, usually in beginning, even full hard braking at much higher speed than that shown in that track, there was no veering off center when jet came to a full stop. Same environment settings, sometimes with full loads of fuel and ordnance even.

Avio Posted October 3, 2023 Author Posted October 3, 2023 (edited) I suppose we would have to let it drift to a stop, as no amount of light touch on the pedals seem to be able to stop it straight. Wonder how the real ones do it. As for new missions, there were occasions when plane was able to stop straight too when slower than 15 knots. Seem to be some observed inconsistency. Edit - As observed so far, problem occured before whether at fast or slow speed taxiing. Edited October 3, 2023 by Avio 1
