TEST PILOT - Pushing The Envelope (v1.1) is a complete set of 8 missions for FSX. Each will push your abilities to the limit, with a wide variety of aircraft and locations across the globe.
You will need considerable skill to complete these flight tests, ranging from a tail scrape test in the 747 to a low level attack run in the F/A-18.
These missions will demand great skill and ability. You will turn your hand to formation flying with an artificially-intelligent F/A-18, perform an airworthiness check in a restored DC-3, land in 40 knot crosswinds in the 737, conduct an aerodynamics demonstration at 50,000ft and much more.
Mission Plans:
-
Cessna Suitability - Check the Cessna 172 is fit for purpose.
-
Crosswind Limits - Assess 40 knot crosswinds at a rain-soaked Boeing Field.
-
African Aid - Take a restored Military DC-3 through its paces before demonstrating a cargo drop.
-
Ground Attack - Take the F/A-18 out of its comfort zone and blast through the Swiss Alps low level to your bombing target.
-
High Altitude - See the curvature of the Earth at 50,000ft and see what effect high altitude flight has on aerodynamics
-
Tail Scrape Determine the minimum takeoff speed in the 747 by dragging your tail on the runway and stagger into the air.
-
Artificial Intelligence Glimpse the future of air combat and fly on the wing of a fully computer controlled fighter
-
Ski Jump - Reach for the skies in a new way. Perform a daring ski jump takeoff from snowy mountain sides of Alaska.
Produced by a real-world airline pilot, each mission is accompanied by an audio commentary, pre-flight briefing, many additional scenery objects and reward.
You will need to adapt quicky to the job at hand. The question is, are you ready?
