@Chancey21 almost every Runway can be used In both Directions i.e. 36 or 18.
IRL Wind and obstacles Dictate which runway you use, and it can vary from day to day.
But, even with no wind, only One Runway is usually used to make takeoffs and landings more efficient and flowing, and to keep the Traffic pattern going in one direction.
but if there's not a lot of traffic, the tower will let you takeoff from both directions ;)
Some runways are one directional, usually on the side of mountains and such.
and thank you for the Upvote :)
@JohnnyBoythePilot That's awesome flight times m8!
I have logged 78 hour on Robinson R-22 and R-44, plus idk how many thousands of hours in simulated games like DCS world, IL-2 1946, IL-2 BOS, FSX, and a couple more, flying most of the aircraft except in FSX, need to work on Embraer module in FSX ;)
@BaconRoll "NO MODS ALLOWED"
does that include XML parts?
I don't mean Invincibility and OP weapons... (those are out of the question i imagine)
more things like Unlimited fuel, and weight/scale adjustments.
Love this plane and how it looks
amazing work!
flight is easy enough, a little wobbly at max/min speeds... but that's just fine and adds character.
I do suggest nose wheel steering ;)
@deatroit22 well.... you can fit it with one rocket pod... in EVE :P
actually I'm not an EVE player, but I love EVE's designs and lore, so I got the fitting info from wiki
Nice Job dude!
I wanted to make this thing myself but you did such an amazing Job with this,
that I feel like It will be pointless to..
is there a way I can send you a private message?
I want to share this and this with you if you want ;)
One of the most Important things that Pilots and Flight crews train for is Emergency Procedures.
I specifically call these Emergency Procedure because that is exactly what they are:
A Procedure to be followed upon an Emergency condition.
and this is how they are referred to when investigating the incident afterwards.
A lot of people are unaware of this, but pilots simulate almost every possible Emergency Procedure that their aircraft might experience in a safe environment.
(Simulators or Flying, and as long as these problems are known about a specific aircraft)
All these procedures and the Correct actions to be taken in such occasions are available to the pilot via the Aircraft's Pilot Operation Handbook (POH) and must be available to the pilot and in the cockpit at all times.
A lot of student pilots fail their final check-ride due to these exercises.
-Tammie Jo Shults is a Great pilot because she stayed calm and collected in an emergency situation, and followed the exact procedure she needed to.
-Her second in command is a Great copilot because it was him who had to look the Emergency information up in the POH and assist the Pilot in command.
-Her Flight Crew are Great because they had to relay ALL information about the cabin and engines to the pilots and manage the passengers until Everybody is off the aircraft.
P.S. By LAW: The Pilot in command has full responsibility over the aircraft once it's in the air and until everybody is off, and it is the Pilot in command that has final say if the aircraft takes off at all.
that's why everybody whales at the Pilot when something goes wrong and people die.
@MrSilverWolf :)
+1@JohnnyBoythePilot That could be Awesome XD
+2@Strikefighter04 @BaconEggs @JohnnyBoythePilot
+2@jamesPLANESi @SaturnV @Texasfam04
+1@Chancey21 XD, maybe people will start communicating with something else other than just crashing into someone going "lol hi" :P
+1That looks awesome!
Great job :)
@Texasfam04 thank you, have fun with it ;)
@Texasfam04 Thank you, I actually find it harder to fly out of the Cockpit ;)
Glad you liked it!
@Strikefighter04 Thanks :)
Feel free to Tag anyone else you think would be interested :)
+1@Texasfam04 @Phoza @ForeverPie
@MrSilverWolf @SaturnV @Strikefighter04
@FastDan Thank you :)
+1That's pretty cool!
@SaturnV XD
did you set wind speed and direction to get your ATIS tho?
;P
@jamesPLANESii Yeah My next subject is gonna be about Airspaces and Uncontrolled airspace communication works ;)
+1and Thank you :)
@SaturnV I'm really Happy you did, that the whole point of these :)
and thank you!
Yeah!
sad to hear :(
I hope he has an easy passing.
@GreatHenry thanks, but I don't know a lot.
I'm just happy to share what little I know :)
@DerekSP thank you :)

@BaconEggs yup :)
@Texasfam04 Glad you liked it :)
and yeah, those 35's got a Big Burner on'em ;)

@JohnnyBoythePilot Thanks!
+2These are the Basics, FSX or is a GREAT platform to learn civilian Radio Comms!
@BoeyingOfficial XD, yup...
Next subject:
+3Airspaces, Controlled/Uncontrolled - and how to Communicate in Uncontrolled airspace (Simpleplanes Airspace).
Thank you for the Upvotes @InternationalAircraftCompany , @Phoza @EternalDerkness
@Texasfam04 @JohnnyBoythePilot
+1You are fast @FastDan :P
@Wahoo12 great platform to learn Helicopter basics, and it's the easiest helicopter to fly in DCS...
+1once you get the hang of the autopilot setups.
@Wahoo12 get it ;)
+1it's tons of fun :)
looking pretty good, I love flying this in DCS: World
https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/F74iU2/Orca-MK-IV
there's a video in the description that shows the cockpit, with the closest thing i got to a working Attitude indicator...
-can get mis-aligned in rapid maneuvers and heading changes.
let me know if you want me to upload the AI itself :)
that is a cute Schweizer!!!
I always thought these look like BMX bikes with a Rotor attached :P
Great work!
P.S. de-activating the gyros is fun and pretty realistic ;)
+1@BaconRoll cheers m8, will try some things out ;)

Wow... that's all i can say
A couple of shots of Vodka and a big hammer is what's needed to make it into a replica.... (Russian standards) :P
JK it already looks like a replica, Great work!
+1awesome!
@JakeTheDogg thank you.
how do I know?
Probably the same way you do ;)
@deatroit22 well.... you can fit it with one rocket pod... in EVE :P
actually I'm not an EVE player, but I love EVE's designs and lore, so I got the fitting info from wiki
Sweet!
+2יום עצמאות שמח (happy independence day) :)
@doge a lot more work went into the MK IV ;)
R.I.P.
