There's something so beautifully peaceful when you finally get it to the edge of space at Mach 10. In VR it's an absolute treat to look out on the planet with the stars above you and the bright lit earth below 🌐❤️
@@GCMGaming definitely worth a shot! The aircraft is quite loud the whole way up but once you hit the edge of space the music takes over and it's just this beautiful serene environment
Yeah that could probably do a quite a bit of lift at that speed but it wouldn’t be entirely lift anymore. it starts to be a Mix of forces at higher speeds the earth is pretty large like really large. Like 25,000 miles around large and Mach 1 is 750mph. M9 is 6,900mph so it could do a round trip in about 3.6 hours the escape velocity of earth is like Mach 30 (23018mph) so that probably be like just a bit to slow to get any really strong effect from the curve he’d need to go faster then it be like when you go over a hill or a bump really fast and you get that feeling of floating but it would be continuously like you were in space. density and pressure probably would be a closer hypothesis. The faster you go in a fluid like air A lot of properties shrink and grow exponentially like drag and the way the high and low air pressure bubbles interact with the wing and grows bigger and stronger. The fluid gets “thicker” too because your hitting more particles and they can’t get out of the way fast enough some airplane can fly with only one wing if they go fast enough in any direction and earths curve is said to be different because it’s bulged at the equator. high speed missiles probably feel the almost like antigravity centripetal force effect from it the curve Your answer is pretty good one definite like👍 that’d be awesome to see someone do that flight they be like a comet flying across the sky
Yeah for sure. I calculated it for the SR-71 once and I think it was like 5% or something like that. Truthfully though.. the drag would be so great that endurance would be measured in minutes and the aircraft wouldn’t be usable again (the SR-71 needed fuel not because it leaked.. but because it took a significant amount just to get airborne; the X-15 was nearly destroyed in its world record flight; and the shuttle required months of post flight servicing to be ready again). This is why most concept hypersonic aircraft usually fly a ballistic arc mostly outside of the atmosphere.
Once you're up at around 125,000 Ft. shut-down the turbofans and hit the ignition of the Scramjet. Retract your wings at about 7500MPH and put the juice to your engine, get ready for escape velocity and retrorocket firing once you're in that balance with gravity. By now you should be navigating by geomagnetics or your "blind-guidance" system. And don't forget to tell Ant May hello for me, I ain't seen her for 30 years!
Regular passenger jets stratosphere cruise, you were mesosphere cruising only about 50,000 feet from space! At the end of the video I finally realized that I just sat there for 46 minutes watching in silence. Not even the real thing and I still couldn't peel my eyes away. Thank you!
After the inverted dive to gain speed, you can then reach mach 3 if you keep ascending at the right angle, so there is no need for a second dive to turn on the scramjets. It just takes some practice and slow movements to keep the energy. Try it out! Nice vid bro, this plane is addictive!
Actually, rather than backwards, it would be sped up, since you're flying west to east, in the opposite direction of rotation. On this 45 min flight, it's 3:45 later when you arrive. If you were flying JFK to LAX over the same 45 min, you'd arrive 2:15 earlier than when you left.
4:30 NO NO NO NO NO!!!!! The FAA would have your pilot's license if you did this in real life!!! You're supposed to STOP BEFORE the line, then ask ATC for permission to cross the runway, and if ATC gives you the permission to cross, then and only then are you allowed to cross that line. If you're past that line, you are considered as an aircraft on the runway. You crossed that line, while another aircraft was taking off on the runway!!!! NOOOOOOO!!!!!!! I can't believe what I just witnessed! Oh!
It's called a runway incursion, and this guy is not a real pilot. Let him have his fun. If he starts deciding to take it seriously with something like VATSIM or jump into RL aviation, then we can be upset.
You're right. LOL I'm a student pilot, and I'm taking it way too seriously. Thank you for your kind comment. Most people would've been an ass about it. Have a wonderful day.
@@adamr2977either that or he never actually tried to learn how to fly like real life civilian pilot does. Or else he never used FSX which has flight lessons which was written by an actual flight instructor.
I love this plane. It's so fun to fly. Thank you for sharing your video. I see you also get that 'flickering / jitter' near max altitude. I hope they fix that in an update.
The thing goes so fast they don't even bother with forward vision, only side widows to watch the world blur past. At mach 9, if its in your flight path 100km ahead, you're going to hit it.
Fun video, dude. Dont take the armchair pilot opinions too seriously. Everyone starts somewhere, and any landing you can walk away from is a good one, as they say. Keep having fun! The joy of simulators is the lack of consequences sometimes.
A little nitpicky I know, but when tower instructs you to hold short of a runway, you're supposed to stop before the "hold short bars" which are the parallel solid and broken line pairs on the taxiway just before the runway. Doing so lets an aircraft on the runway have plenty of wingtip clearance.
Very cool. I know that seeing right in front of you isn't needed in a plane like this, but I think I would be very uncomfortable with visibility like this 😂
Loved the video, but as a sceptic... At low speeds, your aircraft should have the flight characteristics of a brick, even with an F-22 level fly by wire system for your flight control surfaces, and yet yours lifted off the ground on takeoff like it's a piper cub, way too early on the runway. You got to 200 knots before the runway started? You'd be G-locked. Never mind climbing out like a 737max. Later, your 7 degree touch down on the runway is nearly impossible for an aircraft of this stature, remember an FA-18 super hornet touches down at 8.1 degrees but has a MASSIVE landing gear system that would simply be too bulky and heavy for something like this. Your landings should look more like an F-16, 11 degrees nose up the entire way down the runway, using the wing to air brake for you, and touching down like a feather while you hold that nose to the sky. Don't believe me? ru-vid.comBRgF4XjcVww
Surprises me that the Concorde had to be painted WHITE to reflect the heat generated from breaking the speed of sound, and even the BLUE PEPSI scheme in the 90s promotion prevented it from doing so. So how the black metal or paint of these could get by at higher speeds kinda ... EXPLANATION PLEASE.
Before you had taxied into your parking spot, you damn near ran into another aircraft lol, I’m no pilot but I am an aircraft mechanic and I’m 100% sure if something similar occurred irl it would be considered a pilot deviation, or just generally super dangerous
Can somebody please tell me why the vessel glows???? And as it cruises , i see two engines at full throttle and two are turned off. Am i reading the gauge correctly?? @ 25:30 is the Great Lakes
