Re: [Flightgear-devel] DC-9/10 for EMAS simulation, best FDM ?

2011-12-28 Thread HB-GRAL
Hi all

About EMAS again, now taken directly from the FAA advisory circular:

Assume a runway with a DC-9 (or similar) as the design aircraft. An 
EMAS 400 feet in length (including a 75-foot set-back) is capable of 
stopping a DC-9 within the confines of the system at runway exit speeds 
of up to 75 knots.

Maybe someone can point me to a similar aircraft (or MTOW) in the FG 
aircraft repository ?

I finished collecting and calculating the coordinates/data for about 60 
EMAS in U.S. and international (I am willing to provide this data for 
FlightGear of course), and I started to design a prototype for the 
scenery ( 
http://wiki.flightgear.org/Engineered_materials_arresting_systems ). Now 
I would start to look how this can be implemented (by 
terrain/materials/FDM) and I need a small hint what aircraft I should 
look for.

Thanks a lot, Cheers, Yves

 Hi all

 When I want to start to implement a EMAS test in one FlightGear aircraft
 FDM, what is the best or most advanced FDM we have in the category of
 a DC-9/DC-10 ? I need to simulate a 60-70 kts overrun. The aircraft/FDM
 should provide a maximum take-off weight, a terrain coefficient and a
 braking friction coefficient, I guess ...

 Thanks for any advice, Cheers, Yves
