The following scenario puts an aerial tanker in orbit over
|
|
KSFO at 3000 ft AGL. The tanker uses the 737 model,
|
|
but you can use any model (a KC-135 model can be
|
|
found at:
|
|
http://home.comcast.net/~davidculp2/hangar/hangar.html).
|
|
The center of the orbit is actually west of KSFO, and the
|
|
eastern edge of the orbit passes over the airport. Note
|
|
that AI aircraft do not react to wind, therefore your speed
|
|
and bank angle will have to vary along the orbit since
|
|
your "user" aircraft *does* react to the wind.
|
|
|
|
I recommend using the T-38 as your airplane for four
|
|
reasons: (1) it has a radar screen which may be needed
|
|
to find the tanker; (2) it has the speed to catch the
|
|
tanker; (3) it uses a JSBSim FDM, which means it can
|
|
onload fuel; (4) it has a green light added to the
|
|
instrument panel, between the fuel gauges, which comes
|
|
on when you are in the refueling envelope.
|
|
|
|
Right now the air refueling envelope is very loose, and I
|
|
plan on tightening it up in the future. Currently no
|
|
aerodynamic effects of refueling are modeled
|
|
(i.e downwash, bow wave, vortices).
