Truth be told, Spelt, Spelled, and any number of other words have multiple spellings depending on what country you live in, what version of English you speak (or not) and what school you went to, original nationality of your parents and culture you grew up and currently live in. All of these factors will affect in one manner or another how you phoneticize in your head which determines how you spell a given word.
I used to correct people constantly because I saw these 'mistakes' as a detriment to the language itself. I've since come to realize that Hollyweird and street slang have already destroyed the former sancity of Websters love.
In short, If I am able to make out what the person is trying to say, then I let it go. If they are using a word which is wrong in context (example here is when Alex posted MCP instead of MIP) then I will correct that because it can and will lead to problems in giving a correct answer.
And for the purists amoung us, I was an not an english major but loved the study of it until I discovered that we dont even speak 'English' and have'nt for almost 100 years.
We speak 'American'.

Back to it....
So, its coming down to I need a prop that will drag me thru the sky at speed. The thrust is determined by the prop I'm using and I can adjust my engine up or down as long as it is capable of turning that particular prop at its max speed.
In other words, Engine size and power is determined by prop size and thrust rating, which in turn is determined by aircraft weight/inertia/drag.God's in command, I'm just the Pilot.

Nice little aeroplane and its amazing what it can achieve with only 15hp a side.
I see there is a MSFS model you can download on one of the sites. I wonder if it will be realistic enough to edit the aircraft.cfg file to play around with bigger and smaller engines. That will give you an idea what to expect.Fritz -> Helicopter Cockpit Builder

I'm considering using X-Plane as a sort of wind tunnel to test my design. I know its not perfect, but the flight dynamics are based completely on the model and not the other way around. That should give me a pretty good idea of what to expect.

Can someone tell me what X-Plane is all about (in short terms) as to why i might want to use it instead of Fs9? Or would i really not want to?
Cheers,
Alex
