Title: F6F Checklists
Post by: AG-51_Glider on September 10, 2012, 01:47:05 PM

Just wanted to share this with the public. These checlists are a compilation of the real life F6F checklist and the IL2 settings. Please note that this list was prior to HSFX 6.0 and performance (engine performance at least) has changed. I have not tested this with the new version but intend to do so and will post results when I do.

Enjoy!

Well I played around with the F6F last night and am pleasantly surprised with the new flight models. I took off and climbed to 25,000ft using the settings in the Checklist. Now bear in mind that I derived these from the original real life F6F-5 flight manual.

At 25k the plane was within 5 KTAS of the published airspeed. The power settings from stage 3 blower (real life setting of high) could not get to the published power of 49.5
