Way too young ! Excellent espionage writer. I've read three of his latest and looking for others........

Thanks! I'm rather excited about this... I always kinda wanted to be Indian at heart...

Haze Gray deployed all those years, and I never knew that either!! NC

Nicely done Pat! You really need to clean that instrument panel. Maybe even paint it. The grime, dust and chippies are really building up. :S

The dealer just emailed me. He says he changed out the original plug with a polarized one, and unless I am operating the radio around water, then a transformer wouldn't be needed? I have a stong suspicion many of you will disagree! NC

I figured it was from Cannon and their "Non Standard Airframe" fleet. I've taken a few rides with that unit, but never in the 328. Neat looking aircraft.

Wonderful shots Ferry. I love them. You are really good at aviation photography.

Nice looking HUD. Goodness!

I may take you up on the offer. When I get back home this Thursday, I'll figure out when a good time for road trip, and check with you:). NC

These are a real treat, PC! I like the Storch on takeoff, you can really see the HP leading-edge flaps as well as the trailing-edge ones, but to see the Avro tripe fly definitely put the crown on your day. :applause:

Seems very strange that would be the only one with a tail hook. We had fifty or so in NAATC Jacksonville, all equipped with a hook. It could be that when they were "civilianized" they removed the hooks.

Nice one - looks like I have a missing or corrupted texture and FSX is putting a default one on. Changed that to an all black one from Steve Parsons shaders and all is well. Thanks for the pointer. kurt

Thanks Roger - I'll check them out. kurt

Would this work? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dale-Fluke-IT400-Medical-Grade-Isolation-Transformer-110V-NEW-IN-ORIGINAL-BOX-/161010666194

Rami, KH gave me a wonderful tour of La Spezia last year on my visit with him and Xavier. By the way, while I haven't see Xavier here lately, he's a NATO historian at La Spezia and could probably also help. Sadly I lost his and all my other E-mail addresses just before Christmas so I can't help you in getting in touch with him. Here is a photo I took of a model of the harbor at the La Spezia Navy Museum. It shows the bomb damage from allied bombing.

Thanks! NC

Goodness, YoYo... Brilliant! Even ware and fading between the ribbings. Nicely done!

I have a Monster brand electronic surge protector that "cleans" the power, and ensures constant level voltage (or it shuts off). Would that type of device work as a isolation transformer? NC

I think I remember that thread too. It wasn't about adding interior model parts - it was more about getting parts coded to be viewed from the exterior to also be viewed while in VC view.You would essentially have a very low resolution static VC. Unfortunately, I can't find that thread either.

Well, the only thing I can recommend now is to refund you. If you want to hang on a few days, I might have a fix, but for now, the only thing I can do is a refund. Milton is having the same issue. Plane is totally invisible and for no apparent reason. Just to recap; * FSUIPC should be up to date * The installer 'must' be installed directly into the FS folder. IT cannot (cannot) be opened in a subfolder or 'new folder' or other drive. It 'must' be opened into the sim or this will happen.

Hey RedDog, The DLL files need to stay there in the F24 folders. We could not have a uninstaller as it would leave some planes without certain functions as they share components of this plane. How about redownloading the Installer and running it again. Being that its 500+ megs, perhaps it has a birp in it and is corrupt. It does happen. If that doesn't do it, then we may have to do a refund.

Thanks that's more like it never could find a matching font. Just some minor lining up left to do.

Thanks for the tip!

Found the Autopilot !! Now I can make a beer run when I'm flying this sweetheart.....

Hey RedDog, Question one, no plane: Try rebooting the sim. There are two modules that need to be running for the plane to show up. Let me know if that didn't work. Question two, alias': Yes, files all over tarnation. Question three: Try the reboot before you try the smaller textures route. Lets get your plane visible.

What ??!!?? Autopilot ??.............buttons, eh ? I'm gone.....

No problem. Others will need to know that do this system that you use. Note, you can install to P3D only if you wish. Its a dual Prepar3D and FSX installer. Bill

Ditto on that!!!

There may not be a way to control that part of the graphics - possibly because of the need for MS to keep the start screen smooth. If that's the case, just hit Alt+Enter to exit full-screen mode, set up your flight, then go back to full-screen after you hit Fly Now.

So, everyone found the Autopilot hidden buttons?

Dommo arrigatto, Blue-skin-sahn.... (bows humbly) Yes. I was perhaps one of the last ones without such a system. Seems like nearly everyone has this but me till now.

When FSX came about, the $pan was no longer needed in the model in FS, but needed in the 3D building program. $xxxx (what ever you name it) with the $ on the front tells the sim that this is a 'instrumentation' file and handled as gauges. Then the sim reads the texture as gauges. The $ file is also flipped opposite of normal, so in FS, it will be right side up if the maker of the sim is using the $ file for other things, etc. I still use $pan's. (Pan means panel, but you can name them $vc1, $dangpanelthing, $rightlowerpanel, etc). Bill

The problem is that the installer is online-activated. If the installer cannot get the ok from home base, the package is invisible. What ever computer it runs on, it must have an online activation or it doesn't work.

Ickie, I have set my max bid at $86. How high should I bid? Shipping is about $17. NC UPDATE: the bid is up to $92, I think. Just need to know what you think it is worth.....NC

Thanks!

You guys know how to live!

Yep.. dang. You cant activate it. Im sorry Heywood. We'll get you a refund ASAP. How do you get your planes activated when you purchase them?

Once the Borg assimilated one Vorta, that new drone's military intelligence would be spread throughout the collective. At that point, the Borg would know they need to shift their priority to the cloning and Katracel-white facilities. Without their white, the Jem-Hadar will die, and unless the Borg nanites were capable of ridding them of their genetic addiction, they would be useless as drones. I suppose that Borg tech could conceivably be configured to form sub-cutaneous Ketracel-white synthesizers, but I believe that this would be considered too much of an imperfection to the Borg, making them an undesirable assimilation candidate. The next question is what would happen when the Borg finally set foot on the Founders' home planet. Remember, they already have the Vorta's knowledge and technology. There's really nothing they need on the Founders' planet, so I'm guessing they look around and leave.

Love it, love it love it !!!! :applause::applause::applause:

Hey Heywood, You do not need to buy it twice. If its just for your residence, just request a secondary code for your other computer. You can copy the installer over. Just keep the codes saved with the installer. Bill

The tail wheel suspension is up inside the tail and looks like an Oleo damper and is hinged by a dragging link plate. I didn't actually ever find out if it was a free spinning tailwheel or linked internally to the rudder mechanism, so I cant answer that. My apologies. We treated it like a linked tailwheel. From what I remember, I thought you could kick it out of its lock plate and it would freewheel till it locked back into the plate in the bottom of the spinning vertical shaft. (I was pretty young back then and might be thinking of the Stinson). Yep. They do. Our friends in San Diego that had a Staggerwing, whenI got to fly in it, it too sounded like it was idling, but we were moving out!

Whoo Hoo! Thanks for the effort in building this long forgotten flying machine. I look forward to exploring The Friesian Islands and around the Baltic Sea in it. Perhaps a flight to visit the Scandinavian countries is also in order.

Great photos Lawman. Thanks for sharing those. You Dutchmen have had the Militracks and now this airshow all in about a month's time. Looks like the light was difficult for photography, as it often is at airshows. Sometimes I open my aperture up an F stop or two to in order to emphasize the subject and make it stand out from the sky.
