Thread: Rules Question

    Default Rules Question

    Played a game today and a question arose.

    If you get a jammed rudder for both left and right and a fire damage what would you do? The rudders mean you cannot turn at all but the fire says you can’t use a straight so what do you do?

    Thanks in advance.

    Stall-straight-stall if you can. You will take extra fire damage for any straight.

    If you are playing with altitude rules, you can 'overdive' (stall-dive-straight [representing a second dive]) and try to blow out the fire. Make sure that you have enough altitude first.

    It was also pointed out some time ago that sideslips can be executed without the rudder, but I always assume that the control danage is more than just the rudder so I choose the overdive like Dave.

    The rules specifically forbid the use of any card with the jammed directional arrow, and that includes sideslips.

    Your first concern should be the safety of the aircraft/aircrew-overdive is the way to go.

    Either overdrive or overcook
