FILES IN THIS ARCHIVE:
757.DOC - This file
757.FLY - Boeing 757 aircraft file
HOW TO USE THE FILES:
The airplane in this file requires the use of Chuck Yeager's
Advanced Flight Trainer (formerly known as Advanced Flight Simulator)
from Electronic Arts. To use the plane, simply put it on the same
directory as AFT. AFT will find it and place it in the "planes" menu.
Chuck Yeager's Advanced Flight Trainer is a flight simulation
game available from Electronic Arts. This is one of the best values in
entertainment software. AFT is the most realistic flight simulation yet.
If you don't have this game, and if you are a Flight Simulator freakie or a
Jet jockey, then go out and buy this game!
THE 757:
------------------------------
Boeing 757
Engine: 2 Rolls-Royce RB.211-535C turbofans
Wingspan: 124 ft., 6 in.
Length: 155 ft., 3in.
Maximum weight: 220,000 lbs.
Landing gear: Retractable tricycle
Service ceiling: 35,000 ft.
Maximum speed: 540 mph
Crew: 4 plus 233 passengers
The 757, along with the 767, is the newest commercial airliner to
come from Boeing. It carries the newest in technology, including cockpit
CRT displays, fly-by-wire controls, and an autopilot that can land the plane
itself. The 757 first flew in 1982, and is now being used by many airlines
because of its popularity with pilots and passengers, and its low fuel
consumption.
COMMENTS:
If you create any new airplanes, please upload them so they can be
shared. I love to get new airplanes to use. The only things I used to
create my planes was a book with statisitcs on the plane, what I thought
the plane could do, and some guesswork. Please leave me comments on what you
think should be improved, anything you have discovered, or your opinion.
Your comments will encourage me to post more airplanes, stunts, and
airplane races in the future.
AFT keeps its airplane stats in small ASCII files called *.fly.
These files include number values for all of the flight characteristics of
the aircraft. Using these numbers, it is concieveably possible to simulate
any conventional aircraft! A complete description of how to program new
planes is avilable. The file is AIRPLANE.ARC by Paul Grace.
