Great to see Nicki getting the reins of Honeycomb again, so the brand and design can continue. Welcome news indeed. Focus on stability first and then new product development. There is a huge brand trust issue to overcome first & foremost.
Stay away from Airfoillabs products if you are an X-Plane user. You can expect zero support from them if their product doesn't work, or stops working correctly.
About the CTR fuel pumps off... i got this info from an Airbus mech in a forum: "However, the general recommendation (not mandatory) is to have the fuel pumps switched OFF during refueling, in order to ensure that the possibility of pump dry running is avoided. It is particularly relevant for the center tank pumps, because the center tank is most of the time empty at the end of the flight. Switching OFF the center tank pumps ensures in all cases that they do not run during refuelling."
F/A-18 v. MiG-21. Seeing the F/A-18 coming, pity that the MiG didn’t just try to retreat at max mach. We can now confirm the cause of death: Bad Aeronautical Decision Making. Like so many in that conflict, leadership lied - extreme loyalty to that lying person seduced many to stay at their combat stations until the end. They died because of it. Bad choice.
