The engine rolls up rather than snaps up. Take Off: One notch of flaps, brakes off and ease the throttle up. Press and hold the starter switch mid right until started.

Start up is easy – flip the battery and generator on, check the fuel selector. Note there was no rudder trim accessible from inside the aircraft…… The trim controls have reset buttons. On the left side we have the throttle and controls for gear, flaps and trim. The switch panel to the right has the main engine and lighting controls. Note XP will always take fuel from the droptank first – the fuel control will only move if the tanks are dropped and will switch automatically to Wing tanks – Main and Off can then also be selected. Switches for the guns, bombs and rockets are also on the main panel for ease of use. A switch top right provides a pop-up autopilot and radio. Main Panel: Usual selection of controls and instruments. The cockpit is a sim friendly, but mostly in the right place very recognisable version of the P-80 layout – with a few controls moved to be well placed for the sim pilot. The external 3D model and liveries were provided by Matt I added the flight model, animations, weapons, plugin coding, PBR, 3d cockpit and instruments, additional textures and FMOD sounds. The P-80 did, however, see extensive combat in Korea with the USAF as the F-80. The closely related T-33 Shooting Star trainer remained in service with the USAF and Navy well into the 1980s, with the last NT-33 variant not retired until April 1997. Two pre-production models did see very limited service in Italy just before the end of WW2. However, following V-J Day the contract was cut back to 917 aircraft. In June of 1945 an additional 2500 P-80As were ordered. The initial production version of the Shooting Star, the P-80A, was ordered on Apfor two batches of 500 aircraft. In subsequent test flights the XP-80 reached a top speed of 502 mph at 20,480 feet, becoming the first USAAF aircraft to exceed 500 mph in level flight. First flight was in January 1944.Ī few initial problems were quickly fixed. In November a non-flyable version designated XP-80 was formally accepted by the USAAF only 143 days after the project started. In late July1943 a mock-up was ready for inspection. In June 1943 the USAAF issued a letter of contract with a 180 day target completion. In May 1943 Lockheed was invited to submit a fighter proposal built around the British de Havilland built Halford H.1B (goblin) turbojet. The development process was rapid to say the very least. The Lockheed P-80 Shooting Star was the first jet fighter used operationally by the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) during World War II. Designed and built by Lockheed in 1943 and delivered in a record setting 143 days from the start of the design process.
