Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21bis: Difference between revisions

* '''Angle of Attack''': Getting into the yellow range of the AoA indicator results in a high chance of getting into a spin. Getting into the red range of the AoA indicator is not healthy.

* '''Compressor stalls''': If indicated airspeed exceeds 1300 km/h, the compressor will stall. You'll notice this from the shaking and the drop of N1 and N2. Recovery is easy:

** Reduce speed

** Pull back the throttle and wait for it to spool back up

* '''Fuel system in negative G''': The fuel system cannot feed the engine under negative G load. The engine will shut down in ~10 sec on mil thrust and ~5 sec with reheat / afterburner on. To recover:

** Stabilise flight

** Press and hold the starter button ({{key press|s}} )
