22. Fine-tune slip indicator model for steep turns - DONE
http://aerowinx.com/board/index.php?topic=3646.0

I'm curious about what was actually fine tuned.

I believe I can understand the skid in a turn of 30+ º bank on a highly swept back wing and other factors present in the 744, but of course in the real aircraft the yaw dampers neutralize it, probably by commanding "out rudder" (?).

Were the adjustments made to the yaw damper correction, or to the aerodynamic coefficients ?

[Hardy Heinlin]

To the indicator model.

21. Remove amber band until initial flap retraction - DONE
http://aerowinx.com/board/index.php?topic=3633.0

Could AH trigger it too ? I mean, if I takeoff, say, at Flaps 5, and by AH I haven't reached flap retraction speed, shouldn't the amber band be shown at AH ?

[Hardy Heinlin]

Nopes.

[cagarini]

Sorry HH, I meant THR Reduction or AH, whichever is lower...

[Hardy Heinlin]

I know.

[cagarini]

Check!

B744:

Depending on certification the amber band displays the 1.2g FAA or 1.3g(EASA) manoeuvre margin. It displays with first flap retraction after take-off

from an answer I received at PPrune, also confirming the way it is now implemented in PSX.
