Well I've been using flightsim.com for oh, 5 years now and, I've never ventured beyond the aircraft download section. This will be my first Blog ever so, here we go feel free to comment, I'll need your insightful feedback.
I've finally took a stab at flying the VRS F/A-18E Superbug, and let me tell you it's quite a challenge, just getting the engines started was difficult.
After about 3 days of toying around with the engine start checklist, i was ready to give up and, uninstall the aircraft. Nothing seemed to work for me it was just to complicated to figure out, i couldn't even taxi to the runway. When i squeezed the trigger on my joystick, which i use for breaking, the aircraft raced down the taxiway and flipped end over end:(
The only way I'm able to taxi (@ a snails pace) is, to keep the parking break on while adding small amounts of power. Now that's not how it's done in the real world of aviation but, since i can't get any relief from YouTube videos or, the manual itself, this is the only way i can taxi w/out flipping the aircraft.
I've pretty much mastered flying commercial jet liner's default and, the PMDG 744 queen of the skies. I use Sim brief as my flight-planner for my 747-400, if your not already using it, get it you'll never use anything else.
Anyway
Using for AI traffic Combined with the Superbug, it makes for one great Military flying experience.
Each day i learn a little bit more about the Superbugs, handling and, how the avionics work...Holding speed, altitude and headings.
If you love Military flying this is the aircraft for you, landing on a Carrier or on land, is so exciting in this aircraft. You can just feel the tension of trapping abroad the ship or, getting back home after a long mission.
Oh i forgot to mention, i use Flightdeck5 to practice my carrier landings. The F/A 18 Hornet on F/D5 doesn't have the realism of the Superbug but, it's great flying none the less.
Well that's it for now.
I'm not a professional journalist, just a guy having fun blogging about, a great jet i came across while browsing thru the Flightsim area @ an electronic store.
