Level bombing in the Blenheim

[ATAG_knuckles]

Kestrel: Welcome to the world of the Blenheim, its a tricky bugger for sure BUT with practice it can be a hoot.

Take off: crank in at least 1/2 left rudder trim (and leave it there for the whole flight unless you go about 6,000.00.

you will need full left rudder on take off roll until you get to about 70 mph then you will be able to gradually ease off.

To turn on the ground: you will need brake: push full rudder pedal in the direction you want and press the brake, that will give you a somewhat sharp turn.

Takeoff: Fine pitch and no more that 22 hundred rpm. lift off at 90-100mph. when established in a SHALLOW climb say 120-140 mpg go to full coarse pitch, leave it there until you land.

The ATAG forums has some great videos under the heading of "Planes,Planes,Planes

Go to the ATAG server in multiplayer: get on TS3 Comms: look me up, as I will be happy to fly with you to get you up to speed in the Blenheim.
