    Postbaer61, you have done a fine job on the conversion to FSX

    However all models have Nav lights, Landing, cockpit instrumentation, and white rear nav on tail, was just poniting out my observation from flying the Port Over Models
    Thank you for the conversion

    Ulrich-

    She is a little gem! Every once in a while a bit of freeware finds a permanent home on my SSDs. She has, and I am grateful to both Nigel and you. Glad you liked the screenies.

    Now that we have this exceptional aircraft, I am interested in a period RAF airfield/ scenery that would be appropriate to operate from. Any suggestions, freeware or payware?

    Do you have any pics of this rudder shadow anomaly in FSX SP2, please ?

    Grass Field In Texas

    Just downloaded, installed the Tutor and put it on the ground at a grass field in Texas. All I can say is WOW! Thank you Nigel. I was suprised at its power. I guess maybe because it is lighter than a Stearman. I love all your animations especially the starter crank. Had fun flying around the field and doing touch and go's. Here is a pic on the ground in the evening mist

    Biggin, Keith? Hmmmm...could be the 'bump' :-)

    Seriously; those shadows certainly do appear odd - haven't been able to reproduce the abnomally yet.

    Nigel, the other thing I have noticed is that if there is no shadow with rudder straight, on some headings the horn balance shadow can show with rudder deflected, to me it looks as if there is a hidden part as part of the rudder, which also gives the shadow on the elevator. Weird. Nothing else seen on the model & it does not seem to vary with time of day or season so far, must try inverted?
    I'm also finding that she seems less stable in pitch compared with FS9 using your (James') FDE & also mine. Had similar effects on some of my models.
    Keith

    Edit. Yes it does show when inverted.

    Ditto Ulrich

    For those using FS9, one can also add a landing view using Num pad 5 - look down - & locking the view in position with SHIFT.
    Add this to your Panel.cfg in the [VIEWS] section it will give a left landing view. Change the -0.3 to positive if you prefer the right side landing view. Doesn't seem to work in FSX SP2!

    RAF Bicester, theres an fs9 scenery that would probably work by Tim Dale (at Flightsim.com); and one for FSX by Jon Davidson (also at flightsim.com)
    because at the time the Avro's were in use most RAF airfields were grass only; no hard runways (these started to become more common from 1942 on) and Bicester was one of the few (along with Syerston,Newton and Henlow to name three) that didn't get a hard runway.

    Thank you so much for this amazing aircraft Nigel.

    I have been following the development of it over time and the screen shots that the beta testers posted always made me jealous.

    However they didn't do it justice. You deserve a standing ovation from the whole community for this aircraft .

    It is better than a lot of payware.

    Shots from FSX ACC


    Hello PB, I have just tried in FSX +A & yes it is still there but very feint & fleetingly on the rudder - it just shows as a feint hatching in this shot. It lasts for about 1° heading & the attached is the best I can do from my laptop W10 installation - the other shots are from my desktop W8.1 version which were posted in .jpg. This shot I've tried to post .bmp as it might hopefully show in more detail. Its not a problem but just curious as to why some things happen.

    I have checked it in MCX, but nothing unusual





    hmm, i think we have to wait for Nigel's
    FSX native version, to see if it's not caused by
    your FSX installation.

    Just curious because never used that programme, but there a yellow boundary box in the top picture, which seems to be the side view of the fin, but it is the span of the inner elevator - should it be that wide? I notice also in the lower picture that there is a shade change in the rudder at about the position the shadow starts. But as said before it is not a big problem.

    Enormously appreciated, Gavin :-)
    My standing ovation goes to the enormous support and enthusiasm shown here which really does reward the efforts of any developer.

    Thanks for checking things out in MCX, Ulrich :-)

    Your collective knowledge is impressive. The above fascinates me!

    It reminds me that I recently paid good money for a P-51 on which the nose art is upside-down and the surfaces and reflections aren't nearly as good as the Tutor's.

    Hmmm...perhaps more or less 3 years of 12/7 spent on the AVROs has something to do with it, Downwind.
    12/7 that is, except when my off-grid power system decides to head South :-(

    That, and a PHENOMENAL team of Beta testers!!!

    Now I hear the voices: "Go West Young man, GO WEST!"...

    safe and close the Editor.
    That's all.

    Thanks Ulrich, those worked very well in my p3d setup. Only one I would change is the one called "Fuel level indicator" which is actually the forward cockpit, and should probably be moved forward a bit and zoomed out a bit.
