dvt,

Are you saying that the NG speedbrakes are even LESS useful than the brakes on the "Classic" series aircraft?

AW NUTS!

I`m about to convert onto the NG and was hoping the handle might DO something now!!

That being said, the speed brakes are resnobly effective at higher speeds, the trick is to get your profile sorted out before the 10 000` speed transition.

BTW BIK, how extensive/expensive is the mod, and does it also remove the 270kt restriction after de-icing?
