I've been doing really well recently with my A-4 landings, so I wrote up a putative "Flight Operations Manual" to record the stuff I've learned:
http://www.plausible.org/a4-ops/ Obviously, I've never actually trained with the Navy, so lots of this is guesswork based on data points I've picked up from research and/or experience with the flight model. So it's not necessarily something you'd want to hand to a real pilot, but it should help to get FlightGear geeks up to speed on this stuff. If folks like it, it would be nice to put it up on the flightgear.org site. A set of operational manuals for all of our core models would be a really good thing to have. I need to write up something similar for the Harrier, which is even harder to land. :) Andy -- Andrew J.
