AG 1 = Start/Stop Avionics and Engine - after 'second AG1' you activate
Jettison two 450GAL lateral WingFuel Tanks (so be careful)

AG 3 = Activate rear fine-pitch Trim (for normal cruise speed)

AG 4 = Activate principal Trim (for start and landing situation)

AG 5 = Enable AAM Weapons "AIM-9B"
AG 6 = Enable AGM Weapons "Marte-ER"

Start Procedure

• As with real jet turbines, there is a lot of smoke for the first few seconds shortly after take-off. this subsides.

• Afterburner [AG2] start at around 250kmh and at full throttle.

---

flight characteristic

• this jet is a high-wing aircraft, ie. it flies very stable even at low speed and forgives mistakes. Compared to other jets, the M346 (and my version) is really ideal for low-speed approach maneuvers.

• the stall speed (on my M-371) starts about 170-180khm ! (its very low..)
  its the equal Stall on the original M-346 see here , under Performance:

• You can choose the starting point: "Karabola Area: Yaeger Airport Final Approach" - landing the jet WITHOUT turning on the engine (AG1) - simply slide the M-371 gently onto the runway only with adjust the rear trims (AG4)

.. try it . :)

Thank you all and stay 'healthy' 🥂
