Messerschmitt BF109 F Fighter startup

A flyable Messerschmitt BF109 F fighter. This Second World War aircraft had a top speed of 398 mph (640 kph) and an all up weight of 3400 kg.

This flying model has an automatically retractable undercarriage, set for a takeoff speed of 160 kph in the script. The speeds for for tilting and landing gear retraction on takeoff may be altered in the string table above - speeds are in kph. Note landing speed above is a fraction of full speed, eg 0.45, not kph.

The propellors are constant speed, simulated blades. The aircraft tilts and banks realistically. It does not have an operating interior, but does have various exterior views based on an invisible interior, use the [ and ] keys from the interior view. The wing cannon emit smoke and sound when operated by the horn keyboard key H.

The aircraft has a number of animations that can be operated by keyboard keys, or the Aircraft Action Trigger, kuid2:76656:24060:1, when placed on track and set to the correct number:

- to start engines, press the B key or use trigger setting 2. An engine start rule is also available for AI.
- flare for landing, V key, or trigger setting 3, or trigger setting 7.
- fir the guns, H key.
- issue smoke and sound from the tyres when landing, use trigger setting 4.
- the flaps operate automatically at speeds below 180 kph, changeable in the string table above.
- come to a gradual stop on landing, trigger setting 9.
- set speed to 40% of maximum speed, for landing approach, trigger setting 14.
