In Response To: Re: Pelican Flights (M6D) : eh? make sense, the rear jets as you can see, are smaller then the front
How do you figure? The rear jets lift the rear. : and somthing else, lifting somthing inbetween jets is more efficent then
True, but considering the difference in weight between the front and back, the center of gravity is actually shifted forward when unloaded, and backwards when carring a Scorpion. : um..somthing else...thats nothing compared to 66 tones...
Once again, considering the rear jets must be able to lift 66 tons, whereas the front jets need only lift around 2-3 tons. Plus, the structural bulk of the Pelican is puched forward toward the front jets. The troop transport area is just about between the front thrusters. You must also remember that the center of gravity shifts with the weight of the load. : ive also watched the pelicans drop the weapons, theyre held under hte table
I agree here. |
