Does this come with FSX to start with?

[IngoGallacher]

@iliveonjupiter Yes, this glider is included in the default FSX's planes.

Takeit, as an emergency landing. It was just a short flight demo, made in 10 minutes how much long you can put a video on youtube, without using any video processing, (cutting, linking etc).

But, at the landing you should not point the nose down that much aand rely more on the spoilers. And also you should come in more straight.

Best regards

It was a little bit "forced" landing. From that altitude i could fly much, much more time. I just want to make a short fly demo. That's why i used so much the air brakes, not the spoilers, to make a fast landing. Have nice flights! ;)

Landing a glider is diferent to powered aircraft You should pick i point just before the runway and aim for it. once you have this attitude selected you sould not touch the pitch controlls. The aiming point should always be just above the compas and you controll this by using airbrakes. At about 5 meters above the ground you should "roll out" this means selecting level flight do decease speed. Once it starts sinking pull back on the stick. it should be at backstops by the time you land

The best glide speed in the DG808S is 58 knots, raise the nose to keep you airspeed at 58 KIAS, and put in one notch of flap. You should be able to stay up much longer

[dave04045]

I wish you could disable the variometer

They are definitely called airbrakes. They are not designed to spoil lift, they are there to increase the drag only. Spoilers are the panels on the back of an airliners wing. They work on a different principle than the Shemp-hirth style airbrakes on a glider.
