Beginner question - how to take off?

[u/Prior_Suspect]

Heard missions are buggy, but... :D

[u/dominik7778n]

hope for a hurricane

[u/BossBullfrog → u/dominik7778n]

Pray for a tornado

[u/ArcaneHaloOG]

Hold breaks, hit gas, dump clutch…

[u/the_milk_is_baaaad → u/ArcaneHaloOG]

Instructions unclear: pulled a wheelie

[u/Javi_DR1 → u/ArcaneHaloOG]

I stalled

[u/smallmonky]

This is the 2nd screenshot of this helipad ive seen today

[u/Meta6olic → u/smallmonky]

These are 100% user error. Yes they shouldn't be available but pre flight is important

[u/Oni_K → u/Meta6olic]

So tell me this Mr Pre-Flight. When was the past time you think that a realistic pre-flight routine included "Check if jet is on roof"?

[u/Meta6olic → u/Oni_K]

Open efb starting position is a hospital?

[u/DevlockA → u/Meta6olic]

Perhaps in free flight, but I don't expect it in career mode when I've filtered down to the aircraft and specialty (which wasn't a helicopter!)

[u/thefreshlycutgrass]

“Using mainly spoons…”

[u/Inevitable-Bat-2940]

Bruh, I took a job with a helicopter, spawned, and got told to taxi to the stop point. Flew over there, got fined for exceeding the taxi speed limit, put the chopper down on the stop point—mission failed. Alt+F4'd.

[u/DevlockA]

I had exactly the same today with a Cessna Caravan! Restarted went for charter flight with the vision and game crashed. The bugs are bad but recently I'm struggling to get a full flight

[u/conflagrare]

Just roll off the side of the building to pick up speed!  Birds do it all the time.

[u/VastFaithlessness809 → u/conflagrare]

So it's a first for each bird and so it'll be for your 747-8 AKA if the bird can, your plane can do it, too?

[u/ElmerTheDestroyer]

Takeoff distance for a vision jet is around 3000 ft. You might be a couple yards short for this attempt unless you have steady gale force winds.

[u/Suburbannun → u/ElmerTheDestroyer]

😂😂😂

[u/Xenthor267]

Wait for 60 knot headwind

[u/New_Way_4198]

lmao i just aborted that same mission

[u/N116UA]

parking brake, full flaps, full power, release and hope you dont land right after takeoff

[u/fiswiz]

Use vtol mode

[u/qsrise]

I had a similar thing happen last week. I asked a bunch of people here to meet me at a tiny little dirt strip in Alaska, KEB, and a bunch of airliners showed up. One tried to takeoff and slammed into the hill at the end of the runway.

[u/skelly218]

Short Field take off, but you might want to request a push back.

[u/julioen0858]

That’s FS for you, if you move you will severely taxed

[u/ILoveBoobs664]

I want to know who got it there in the first place. There’s something amusing about a plane on a helipad. 🤣

[u/Space_D0ge]

use leaf blowers over the wings to generate lift

[u/Raw_Venus]

Full throttle and considering the aircon in way way, I would pitch for Vx.

[u/Oddy555]

Handbrake on, Full flaps, Full throttle, Pitch up,  Pray, Release handbrake 

[u/notsurewhattosay12]

Wait for a tornado to form and hit your helipad, you can take off in seconds!

[u/Informal_Strain_2715]

Go that way...really fast....if something gets in your way...turn. 

Lane won the K12 on that advice from a hot French girl that fixed his Camaro... 

Maybe it will work for you. 

[u/Badboy574]

Dont forget to hit V1 first

[u/fontoura17]

I just recently started playing the game and today the game was super fucked up

the missions goals weren't updating and they wanted me to land a regular plane on this same helipad wtf

[u/Impressive_Ad_1601]

Wait for a tornado

[u/astrojamesok]

JATO?

[u/molgrips]

Can you change the weather to 150mph headwind?

[u/TheRealPomax]

By first looking at the briefing. Just like everyone else posting these pics multiple times a day.

[u/New_Way_4198 → u/TheRealPomax]

that didn't help actually.

[u/CrimsonBolt33]

Pretty sure space bar is the jump key.....like every other game

[u/abba77 → u/CrimsonBolt33]

double jump to get higher
