accentedpassingtone Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 I'm not 100% certain, but 99% that when Flaps 2 is selected on the AN-225, the slats come out all the way. As it stands now, they only come out a teensy bit (visually at least). My apologies if I'm the one who is wrong here, but I'm pretty sure this could be a "bug" Thanks!

accentedpassingtone Posted March 1, 2023 Author Share Posted March 1, 2023 Hi! The first picture shows the wing of the iniBuild A225 in sim with Flaps 2 set, just after I started taxiing. The slats are out a centimeter (if that). The second picture shows a real AN-225 with Flaps 2 set taxiing to the runway (I know its flaps 2 by the written procedure as well as the position of the trailing edge flaps). The slats are fully extended. T 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted Account Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 mmh, from that bottom picture I'd rather say that the flaps are on 15° which is when our slats also extend. I did forward it to the team for consideration though 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accentedpassingtone Posted March 2, 2023 Author Share Posted March 2, 2023 Cool, thanks. I think even with flaps 15 in the sim, the slats aren't all the way out. They appear to come out in proportion to the angle of the trailing edge flaps. I can't say for certain, but I believe the slats have just two positions on the real aircraft - fully extended or fully retracted. As soon as Flaps 2 is selected, I believe (not 100% sure though) that the slats go to the fully extended position. This may be something you and your team may want to look into. Thanks again for the correspondence! 🙂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
