One of my monthly routes and using the same equipment I normally use.
Thinking to myself I hope his FDE is modified or he's not going to make it.
Couple hours later, American 292 was off the map and never PIREP.
I was in this situation a couple months ago. With the MP3 of the EAGLES in background.
She was never able to even make the limit.
Missing two Main fuel tanks.
Well nuff said, Here is a a little adjustment on the FDE for the OVERLAND 772 with added Tanks.
I made a little Tweaks on the Flight tuning and adjusted the thrust Scaler and the TurbineEngineData options a bit, for Lift of full weight with that Heavy feel.
Off Topic: M_PARE. I recieved your Email friend, Gmail been acting up for the last two days now. Reply as soon as I Can.
For lift of MTW, With stable velocity for taxi.

And most important, The fuel Tanks.

These might be the same as packaged, I'm not sure but it would not hurt to post.

Average cruise speed for trip of KORD-VIDP, around .81 Never .84, You will burn out the tanks ninety two percent of the way.
