Do we have deep stall and flat spin implemented in FlightGear? Cause I flew F16 yesterday and I just couldn't get it to deep stall.
Uhm, that's the trick with an F-16. You can't get it into an uncontrollable flight region ...
(Although I'm not sure the configuration is close enough at this time to be that realistic on purpose).
I think I can't agree with you on that one. Both deep stall and flat spin are possible to occur to F16. The computer can't just guess everything and save you from everything nasty possible in the air (at least not in F16). We had this simulated in Falcon very well (and since Falcon is mostly F16 simulation I don't think they've just made that up IMO).
The F-16 was designed not to go in *any* uncontrollable flight region. No spin and no (unrecoverable) stall. The first delivered F-16 (prior to block 10) had a too small tail area to cover all aspects (allowing in fact deep stalls) but later models (block 15+) can't be pushed over the edge.
