Airwrench

[gojozoom]

Hi guys,

I've been doing a fair amount of air file editing/testing lately (A2A P-47, Xtreme Prototypes Lear 24, etc) as I find sometimes the FDEs are really "out" (eg plane landing with a 10 degrees up-pitch). I'm far from Bern Stolle level, but I find it pretty interesting...it involves vigorous testing though. Flying the same approach 20+ times

Anyways, here is this thing called Airwrench, that supposedly "estimates aerodynamic coefficients using the actual aircraft's physical dimensions and flight performance to create convincingly realistic virtual aircraft models".

Sounds a bit like X-Plane's FDE calculation method...I'd love a tool that generates a realistic FDE from scratch (wake up Dan...)!

Had any of you have a play with it?

I have heard of it, I think AB use's it a bit, can't confirm that , some flight models do the super special flip top liddy thingy ... this is were Accufeel gets in there and fix's some of the real silly things not thought off.

Met an 'airwench' once - flight attendant for one of those no-frills carriers.
