    Hi John Pirnie,
    To which Boeing B-29 Superfortress are you refering? Is it one that is set up to for use in CFS2?

    I ask because some FS versions have a payload weight built into their aircraft.cfg and if you then add a CFS2 payload the whole lot ends up too heavy to fly.

    Assuming you have a plane that is designed to fly in CFS2. for a heavy you need a nice long runway, some flaps extended but not fully, you need to know what speed you need to be going before you pull back
    "............................................. .. V1................................................ ................. V2................................................ . Rotate "
    Be gentle Only pull back a little bit

    Hi John,

    Ghostrider made an update for his B-29 package entitled "Ghostrider's B-29 DP and CFG v1.1". It's in the same SOH section as the package. More take-off power is provided.
