I think I've cracked the nose-over problem. For some reason I had a tailhook section in the aircraft.cfg file despite the hook configuration being hard-coded (or so I believe). Took it out and things are much better.

Only saw this post now. Thanks so much, going to try this out this weekend!

Well, I guess either I don't understand what this blogging phenomenon is all about or the community doesn't, or you do and simply don't care one way or the other, lol. . .not sure which. I started out simply writing my thoughts on the New Year ahead for 2013 and periodically, rather than go on a rant in the forums, posted my thoughts on other things flightsim related in my blogs.

I have really tried, many times. . .to hop on the "DX10 Is Awesome" bandwagon and give it a good ride. I just can't anymore, lol. I will say up front that I blame my aging rig for the lack of "WOW Factor" where DX10 is concerned. I have to assume that's the culprit because I've followed every suggestion made and every tutorial known to man and I just don't see what's so great about it. Claims of "no more stutters", "smooth, predictably steady FPS", "much ...
