Just an observation that may be of
interest;
I can fly approx 1500Nm over water at 300kts and
not have a problem... reasonable graphics and even land successfully (any
landing you can walk away from is a good landing!!!).
I can't fly approx 400Nm at 300kts over land
without the aircraft crashing about 300Nm into the flight.
Some background
NZWN (Wellington International,NZ) to YSSY
(Sydney-Kingsford-Smith, Australia) 1484NM in a A10 Thunderbolt at 300kts
cruise... flight goes great.
YSSY (Sydney- Kingsford-Smith, Australia to YBBN
(Brisbane International, Australia) 410NM in either an A10 Thunderbolt at
300kts or Cessna 310 twin prop at 180kts crashes at about the 300NM
mark.
Interestingly I can fly the A10 from YSSY out to
sea, then due north to parallel to YBBN then
line up for a landing no problems, total trip is about 500NM.
The problem seems to be triggered by flying over
land for a prolonged period. In all cases the majority of the flight is
undertaken under AutoPilot control at variably 5,000 to 10,000 ft
ASL.
I have tried reducing the screen resolution from
1280x1024 to 800x600 but it makes no difference.
The platform is a 1.8Ghz P4, Windows Me, 256M RAM,
nVidia GeForce2 MX/MX400 video card (32Mbyte).
Any comments would be gratefully
received.
