Me 163 Sim Shenanigans

With CavemanMax as my witness, I have successfully landed the Me 163 in Simulator. And not only have I landed it, I have taken off with it. It took a good seven tries, but I finally did it. Take that, science. What shenanigans have you pulled off in simulator? If there is a plane that is harder to land, what is it? I must lay my ill-trained hands on them.

The most impressive part is that you took off again

I found this fairly easy to land to be honest, much easier than i thought. The take off was a bit nerve wracking though. It seems to be able to keep a decent speed without stalling and the overall view is good. It was all about keping the wings level. Once your speed is so low you can then let it drop

congrats on landing and taking off with it, your part of an elite/suicidal few.

Zero!! .. lol .. that night I did all the aeromanuvers in the plane .. ran it out of feul and ammo .. and glided ever so gently to the ground .. however... I exploded due to some Brit's house being on my "Runway"... ok .. it was road...but why is there a house on the road??

Personally, I found that landing that thing to be pretty easy. Take off was a failure though; the right wing tipped over and I kind of spun around in a circle for a few seconds until the wing broke off. And to add insult to injury, after the wing broke off, it blew up.

What a jerk plane.

The landings are what get me. I'm so used to, you know...a plane with wheels. Moreso, the IL-10. I can pretty much drop that thing on to the ground, so I get used to being rough with my airplanes. Not so in the '163.
