4000fpm limit fixed?

[Gazer75]

Hi,

Been away for a long time and wonder if this has been fixed?

Used to be impossible to fly Concorde by the book with FSP due to this problem.

Max climb for Concorde would be 3600 fpm, max descent 3400-3750 fpm according to the RL envelope....
Never had any probs myself in all the years using Concorde.

What Concorde have you been using?


At TOD use alt hold
Reduce throttles to 18 degrees letting airspeed drop to 350KIAS
Hit IAS hold which will cause Concorde to pitch down to maintain speed
When reaching M1.50 reduce throttle to 32 degrees. At this point the Concorde may descend at more than 4000fpm

Using idle reverse on inner engines the Concorde could descend at over 10000fpm if needed.
Restrictions:
1) Must be subsonic
2) Must be below 30,000ft
3) Must be below 370KIAS
4) Can only be used for a maximum of 4min.

This is all from the SSTSIM Concorde AOM, Tutorial and Checklist

Heck! Go ahead and ask the pilots if you want.
