Re: Logitech Saitek

Logitech Saitek

Hello peeps. Been a while since i flown and i was just brushing up on my "skills". However flying the cessna with a simple rudderless logitech attack 3 joystick is simply not optimal. Flying fly-by-wire like an airbus however i think it's fine with that kind of joystick but not the cessna....

Yeah, that final arc is quite tricky. I tried it on the airbus 320. 180 knots, 25 degree turn and that was a way too steep turn. My next test flight, i will probably try something like 15 degrees. But i managed to land and not crash into a mountain. That's a plus.

NOTAM : Slightly changed route, added STAR chart, first post updated. Unable. I only use the instruments that work in the cockpit. So i dont use for instance "route manager". That's unreal for me. I fly kinda old school. Vor's and ndb's ect. If i would have a full working MCDU where i cou...

Will definetly try to be there. These "circle to land" approaches have always baffled me. Like how to calculate the bank angle when you make the turn to final at certain speed etc. I know there are complicated formulas out there, so is there any rule of thumb to this ?. Like a cheat sheet ?.

Re: ET302 crash taking off

These two recent crashes of the 737-max happened both soon after takeoff. I wonder if that is a coincidense. Hope the investigators will find an answer to both of these crashes.
