I recently got the Antonov 225 and it is great except I can't seem to find a runway long enough for it. My joystick is on order so that may have to do with not getting the plane off the ground. Any help?

I believe that Edwards has the longest or one of the longest concrete runways in the world.

are you sure it's the runway length? perhaps your elevator trim is improperly set Wink

AN-225 requires 11,500 feet for max wt. takeoff. There are 48 airports in the US and Canada that have runways that long. At lesser weights, the distance is reduced. Smile

I know in real life the AN225 can land and takeoff from Hannover airport in Northrn Germany because I watched a program on it. Hope the airport is re-created effectively in the fs world! Laughing

Use 1/2 flaps. Full power with brakes on-release brakes-once to speed-then pull back on yoke-climb rate is very low-gear up as soon as you lift off--good luck
