This is a full graphical scale version of Master Nizz's original NASA 747b.
It has a graphical width of 211 ft. and a physics width of 212 ft. Gross weight is 130,416 lbs. giving it a wing loading of 246 ounces per square ft. Engine thrust has been increased to 22,200 pounds per engine for a total thrust of 88,800 pounds. While the weight and thrust numbers may seem awesome they are only one third of the actual aircraft.
Needs a full scale airport. I would suggest down loading one if you don't have one already. Take off runs are long and slow. Don't attempt to lift off prior to 130 mph. On landing approaches keep air speed above 145 mph and make required speed adjustments early as she is slow to respond to throttle changes.
Normal flight controls. Top right switch landing gear. Knob is flaps. 3 position is invisible spoilers & brakes. All the way toward you is full brake & spoilers. Mid position is 50% brake & spoilers.
This model taxes the abilities of G3.5 and once gain it proves to be an outstanding program. Next step is to take it up to full weight and thrust. Should be interesting. Enjoy.
Follow up Note: I have been advised the plane looks really great in version 033 but the engines won't run. Upgrading to 3.5.060 solves this problem.
