 SS1 simulator? Posted on: Thu Oct 07, 2004 2:30 pmRead in the pilots bio on http://www.scaled.com/projects/tierone/siebold.htm that one of them had designed the
simulator for SS1. Anyone knows anything about this simulator? How many Gs are possible to get in it? _________________ Have cool, will travel... |

Posted on: Thu Oct 07, 2004 2:38 pm If you are talking about THIS SIMULATOR then I believe the answer is 1 G.
Of course you may be talking about some other simulator. DKH _________________ Per aspera ad astra |

Posted on: Thu Oct 07, 2004 2:46 pm Well for some aspects the White Knight had been used as a simulator for SS1. Now I don't know how many Gs you could reasonably expect to pull in the White Knight (cue Franklin, he may actually know this).
Although if you slam it straight into the ground I imagine you could work up quite a few. DKH _________________ Per aspera ad astra |

DKH i think sigurd finally banned franklin. you're probably right about the slamming it into the ground. you'd probably get a good several hundred if you didn't tear the plane apart from trying to get too fast.  _________________ Cornell 2010- Applied and Engineering Physics Software Developer Also, check out my fractals |
