Hal V. Engel has made some massive improvements to the [[P-51D Mustang|P51-D]]. Using NACA (the pre-cursor to NASA) published data, he's produced a very impressive [[JSBSim]] FDM. He's also made a number of improvements to the 3D cockpit and the engine systems. Those who enjoy their WWII warbirds will be very interested indeed. Your correspondent has still to manage a take-off from the runway without at least one bounce, but can report that the landing characteristics, while not benign, are at least manageable. This is an aircraft that will really repay some effort on the part of the pilot to get to know, and almost certainly represents the most accurate warbird FDM we have available. | Hal V.

Hal V. Engel ha hecho algunas mejoras | Hal V. Engel ha hecho algunas mejoras masivas al [[P-51D Mustang|P51-D]]. Usando los datos publicados de la NACA (el precursor de la NASA) que ha producido un impresionante FDM [[JSBSim]]. Él también hizo una serie de mejoras en la cabina 3D y los sistemas del motor. Aquellos que disfrutan de su warbirds la Segunda Guerra Mundial se interesa mucho por cierto. Su interlocutor todavía tiene que gestionar un despegue de la pista sin al menos un rebote, pero puede informar de que las características de aterrizaje, aunque no es benigno, por lo menos manejable. Este es un avión que realmente pagará un poco de esfuerzo por parte del piloto de conocer, y casi con seguridad representa la FDM de warbird más precisa que tenemos disponible. | ||
