hahaha, poor ATR’s…
It sounds like weight is a reasonable compromise given the performance cost of trying to analyse the wing/engine shape to maybe make it more accurate. But now that 2024 has a much better modelling of wing/engine shapes, maybe it can come?
I had a nice flight under 100% cloud cover today. The turbulence felt by the A2A Comanche felt very believable. The one issue I had was trying to decide if I should fly at Ma. Measuring it is often based on feel… I flew at Ma for most of the trip because the aircraft was a lot easier to control. G’s were regularly around 1.2 and maxed out at 1.45, which was less than I thought it might have been.
