Some people ask: Why the gear so strong? Why don't go around? Because of cross wind! Because of too high alt. and over speed on final! However, if it over speed on final, they should go around!
I think the most reason is " Wind Shear"
I read a book about BAe 146, the design of 146 expect they could use it in the aircraft carrier, that why the gear so strong!
They are suddenly stalling at the last moment of touch down, that why didn't go around. It is no meaning for go around because it is already on ground suddenly!
As this video said "dive attact" of 146, it use 6 degree nose downd "steep approach", I think it is a bit look like the space shuttle landing.
We can see the "steep approach"action on the "Very bumpy landing" video, the 146 nose down a lot before hard touch down.
Suppose the flare will happen after pull up the nose from -6 degree but the flare action diappear! I think because the speed too low! It look like falling down from the sky! Being stall!

Recently, I just call a old friend, he is a progammer and have his own company, I already ask his company to help me renew my J41 panel to match FSX.
Actually, they didn't have experience on FS panel guages, usually they work project for office only but aure they know XLM and C++ code, I wish they could help!
I think I ask them to modifly the FSX original XML file to become J41 panel guages, do you think it is good idea?
But some people say that:
1) There's no security in XML, everyone else can easily see your gauge code, and can copy it.
2) There's nothing you can do in XML that can't also be done in C++. Where there are many things you can do in C++ not possible in XML.
3) C++ code because its compiled will generally be faster, whereas XML is processed by an interpreter at run-time which is a little slower. Though probably not so much slower most would notice, unless you got real complicated and detailed.
As I know, the trubo-propeller engine power gauges, there are no any simple from MS FS, we should develope by ourself.
I think most difficult of J41 are 4 gauges: - Engine power computer output with different temperature, - Auto Speed ISA , - Intergrated RPM with Mixture Lever - Warning_Panel

Matthias_L>Thank you very much for your posting. I'm very happy that you like my new panel. All in all there are four designers working on a model with functional VC. A french designer (haven't heard from him since more than a year so I'm not sure if his project is still alive), Gordon Lee has often talked about making a BAe 146 with VC, Paul Hannity and Jon Murchison of course. However making a full working VC is a lot of work. Let's see if a designer realize it. I'm looking forward to the new versions.
dominicmahon>I'm a big fan of the J41 aircraft and I had the chance to visit one that is a static exhibit at the Liverpool Marriott Hotel on the site of the former Liverpool airport only last month. They have a simulator set up in the cockpit of the plane which is great fun
dominicmahon>I will send you an e-mail as you asked - Merry Xmas!!
I have already sent you the download links, wish you enjoy and always fly with PAOB J41!
You are welcome to sent me some comments about PAOB J41!
