  • About

Like the SWL-36-MAX, the SWL-151-MAX marks the end of a long line of variants. I have redone the cockpit, and changed a lot of things around. The engine controls, the brakes, the lot is changed. The center sticks are weightless, removing the 'shaking' of the plane when it is on the ground and you are moving the stick around.

  • Instructions

In this paragraph I will be telling you how to fly this plane from parking spot to parking spot.

When you start (In the parking spot), place trim up. Activate 5, 6, and 4. Pull brakes back until the reverse thrust engines reach full power. Release. You will start backing up until you reach 5 mph. When you start to reach the taxiway, turn to line up with it. Deactivate 4, put VTOL to half a notch down, and activate 1, 2, and 6. Taxi following the line at about 30 mph to the runway. When you are lined up with the runway, takeoff when ready. (If you are starting on the runway, trim up, activate 1, 2, 5, 6, and 7, VTOL half a notch down, and full throttle for takeoff). Full throttle. Rotate at 200 mph. Gear up is trim down, 6 off, gear up, and trim up. At 5,000 ft, VTOL up. Cruising is 15,000 ft, 90% throttle.

For landing, descend to 10,000 ft. 80% throttle. Descend to a further 6,000 ft, where you put VTOL to halfway down. At 2,000 ft, gear down, activate 6 and 4, 60% throttle, and full flaps. On touchdown, cut power, and full brakes. When leaving runway, deactivate 6 and 4, flaps up. Taxi to gate. When at gate, stop. deactivate everything.
