KC-10A Extender - USAF Travis startup

A McDonnell Douglas KC-10A Extender refuelling tanker based at Travis Airforce Base California. It operates on invisible track and will load passengers at a suitable landing area. The real aircraft has a top speed of 996 kph and a maximum takeoff weight of 267,600 kg. It carries 4 crew & 160,200 kg of fuel. The aircraft texture is provided by Rob275.

Use the B key to start or stop engines. The aircraft has an automatically operating landing gear. This retracts at takeoff speed (240 kph) set in the script. It lowers at speeds below 240kph. The speeds for tilting and landing gear retraction on takeoff may be altered in the string table above - speeds are in kph.

It does not have an operating interior, but does have various exterior views based on an invisible interior, use the [ and ] keys from the interior view. The aircraft will load and unload passengers at suitable airports.

The aircraft has a number of animations that can be operated by keybpoard keys, or the Aircraft Action Trigger, kuid:76656:24050, when placed on track and set to the correct number:

- B key to start engines, or use the aircraft startup rule for AI
- flaps operation, H key
- night lighting uses the L key, no trigger key
- it will issue smoke and sound from the tyres when landing, use trigger setting 4
- deploy the refuelling probe, V key
- come to a gradual stop on landing, trigger setting 9
- set speed to 40% of maximum speed, for landing approach, trigger setting 14.
See the wepages for further details.
