MiG-17A & C flight models

---

These are flight dynamics (Flight Model, FM, etc.) files ONLY. They do not contain models, skins, cockpits, or any other files, other than the FM itself.

 

They were developed using Kreelin's AeroConvert, and data from the USAF's "Have Doughnut" tac evaluation, performed in 1969.

 

The FM's are somewhat of a compromise, in that, while they are tailored to both mimic the real aircraft's performance in turn rate, sustained G, landing and takeoff speeds,(etc.) as much as possible, they do not impose unreasonable limits on the aircraft under AI control.

 

In short, their stall behavior is somewhat benign, yet, they can enter an almost unrecoverable spin, if you insist on flying them in a ham-fisted manner.

 

The only issue I have with them, is one imposed upon me by time-constraints. And that is, I feel that they are about 25-30 knots too slow when flying just above sea-level, at full military power (not in afterburner).
