flying the B737 sim

just went from props to the 737 in FS9. I had lots of trouble controling
the plane with autopilot. The plane kept stalling. Switching to manual I
could control it a lot better but had to use lots of pitch to get the plane
trimmed.

Just wondering if others have similar results.

thanks

The 737 will stall if the load is too heavy at high altitude. The air is too
thin to support a heavy load. If your flight is a long distance one, fly
at about FL240 for about 30 min to an hour, and then climb to FL350. Either
that, or adjust your fuel or cargo load to make the aircraft lighter. This
should keep it from pitching up and stalling. This applies to the other
Boeings as well.

Good Luck,
Arthur

yes that could be. I had a full fuel load since I was going long distance.
Thx
