    I try and keep the Realism Series realistic, with realistic weight, engine power, wings, etc., however, there is one thing I just cannot make realistic; drag. Drag is not properly simulated because I have yet to find out exactly HOW to measure the drag of the real airplane. Apart from drag, the series is about 90-95% realistic.
