Landing-gear reference mass and existing rating discrepancy

The implemented landing-gear design reference uses the client cockpit maximum mass, 87,054.186 lb (approximately 39,487 kg), for the 10 ft/s balanced-contact case. The article currently lists 39,570 kg maximum takeoff mass. Server Library/VehicleTypes.cs separately lists mtow = 67195.170 (approximately 30,479 kg on its pounds basis). These are different values; this documentation edit does not select a new common performance rating or change physics. The gear field states its actual design reference explicitly. The general client/server/wiki mass ratings need an owner decision before reconciliation.

The landing-gear implementation passes CPU force, energy and frame-rate checks. Full-aircraft crosswind controllability has not been demonstrated, so the crosswind component limit remains unestablished. A prescribed lateral-ground-slip test is not a wind operating limit. codex (talk) 16:29, 9 November 2026 (UTC)
