alexis99 Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Why do the A-6 Intruders, downloaded here, all perform a sudden and violent nose-up when they leave the Carrier deck? All except Dave's A-6E TRAM which flies straight and level. You're supposed to take-off, lift gear, level at 500 ft, and wait till your speed is 450-500 Kts, then perform a 30 degree nose-up to altitude. It's almost like these aircraft are going for the instant 30 degree nose-up. The original Third Wire A-6 has a gentle nose-lift, but barely noticeable. Once the gears are up, it noses quite steeply on account of the massive flaps, so you have to retract flaps quickly and force the nose down a bit. But that feels okay. It also lands easily on deck. I'm trying these aircraft from the same carrier, so it can't be the cat-shot that is incorrectly set. Quote
