Brief test flight last night after downloading 1.0 and very much improved over 0.9.   One thing I noticed and maybe it was me but seems super slippery as far as acceleration.   Before I knew it was 300 knots and when coming in for landing, full spoilers, full flaps, gear down and throttles idle still seemed hard to slow down.  Was decending at 800fps through most of approach.

I typically fly manual approaches for the realism of flying rather than let the computer do a autoland.  

Not upset with this one at all so far.   Still learning the systems but good overall.  

There is definitely a problem with drag being too low in 1.0. Possibly engine thrust is too high as well, but CS should check drag first. Takeoff roll seems normal, but plane accelerates too rapidly after liftoff and is very difficult to slow down on approach even at max landing weight, spoilers, flaps, gear and idle throttle. I would guess the drag is set wrong in the FDE.
