Canadair CL-415's primary mission is broken

I have tried several times to complete the first mission of the CL-415 extended attack without success. It is impossible to take off from Lake Castaic loaded… I have tried from the north, from the south, from the west, from the east, from above, from below, with flaps 10, 15, 25… with the probes raised, probes down… unsmokable. When a mission begins with the plane upside down, it is not a good omen.

If you can’t take off from the lake just crash and you’ll spawn in the air. Not the best solution but atleast you can finish the mission and unlock extended attack.

Every time I have crashed in the lake I have reappeared approaching the lake discharged…I don’t know if it will be viable but I will try.
In any case, it is something that should be solved but… I won’t say anything anymore because everything has been said about this simulator.

I always spawned in the air with a full tank. Or you can try this:
-switch the engine de-ice mode to off
-toggle the 4 bleed air switches to normal
I felt like the plane had more power when doing this and didn’t malfunction as fast.

I’ll try it next time, thanks for the idea! The truth is that it is a little frustrating because for me they are the most attractive missions.

Np. There aren’t many extended attack missions normally available.

If you don’t reach the yellow TRQ engine indicator (even on take of) your engine will not die

For taking of with water tank fully charged you have to be on flaps 2 and never go below 80kts, don’t let your plane bounce.
When scooping try to keep 85kts (keep an eye on TRQ and ITT, dont exceed the green limit !) when finish: reach 88-90kts and gently pull the yoke
