KH-240-1 (Prototype)
The biggest aluminium whale struggling to fly in the world. AG1 for landing lights and flaps; AG2 for speedbrakes; AG3 for taxi lights; AG7 for beacons, AG8 for anti-collision and nav lights. Roll is nosewheel steering.
Start on a Yeager Ramp (I'll be making a location maker soon), deactivate AG8, activate AG3 and AG7, throttle to 3-6%, manage throttle to keep ground speed between 10 mph and 17 mph. taxi to Yeager runway 19L or 19R, ensure final heading is 188, once aligned with runway, turn off AG3 and activate AG1 and AG8, one notch of flaps (halfway between neutral and -1 VTOL), AG2 is optional. Once finished with that, increase throttle to ~50%, wait three seconds, increase throttle to 100%. once above 180 mph, rotate and limit climb to +15 degrees. Once aircraft maintains pitch with trim alone, raise gear and turn off AG7.
