Another jetliner for the Kerbal Express Airlines Challenge. This supersonic jet is even more fuel efficient than the K-380-400 but with shorter range.
Cruising speed: 610m/s
Cruising altitude: 10600m
Fuel burn during cruising: 0.12 unit/s
Notes for taking off:
Pull up at 75m/s. Level off to pick up more speed. We recommend climbing at 200m/s. Turn on the afterburners (AG1) at 4000m. Ease off the climb at 9000m and fly level at the required altitude and at 620m/s. Turn back to dry mode and engage prograde lock for cruising. In prograde cruising mode, the plane would first climb and descend in 200m cycles, gradually converging to the optimal cruising altitude. To make convergence faster, temporary turn to SAS when the vertical speed is above 5m/s, level the flight and turn back to prograde mode.
Notes for landing:
Approach at 75-85m/s and land at 70-80m/s.
