...and , like last time around the textures without mipmaps are currently being prepared and should be ready in a bit from the "check for updates" link in the start menu.
Also heard some rumours about historically correct tail marking being uploaded somewhere.

**alx** · December 4th, 2009, 08:37

Correct tail markings will be available tomorrow morning, Central Europe Time.

I see you're a German landmate?
In the shop there's the option for offline payments if you are an EURO citizen
Please drop me a line to info at classics-hangar dot de, maybe we can speed things up a bit.

***jankees*** · December 4th, 2009, 08:44

Ok downloading now....

Thank you for the discount Mathias!

**Spilot69** · December 4th, 2009, 08:53

Thank you for the discount as well! Love your work, and attention to detail. Off to try it and can't wait for the update for the early birds!

***jankees*** · December 4th, 2009, 09:28

Getting ready for my first flight:

looks sooo good:

my bike has this logo too...

first landing went OK,

but going around, something broke.....
Ok, where's that manual?

Looks great, Mathias!

**Kiwikat** · December 4th, 2009, 09:40

Wow only 15 euro for returning customers!

Thanks a ton Mathias! I'll be picking her up early next week. :ernae:

***Mathias*** · December 4th, 2009, 09:49

Cheers Jan, great shots!

Kiwikat, I just forward the drop in price on the bundle to my "old" customers.
I'm not a friend of timely limited massive discounts as it's an annoyance to those who pay the standard price.

Oh, the "No mip Map" textures are now available from the "check for updates" link.

gajit · December 4th, 2009, 09:49

Yes - i will get her as well once we can use cred cards. :ernae:

**deimos256** · December 4th, 2009, 09:54

Ok I have tried out a5 through a7, are the parking brakes supposed to automatically come on when speed = 0? When in external the brakes stay off but once i switch to VC the parking brakes come on until i start moving again. Also I noticed that the tailwheel stays locked until I use it in the vc, then it will work in external. I havent got a chance to fly yet, I noticed those points and wanted to post them, as far as visuals go this baby is top notch, blows anything I have flown to date out of the water. The level of love that is put into these planes is so apparent. The returning customer discount was a very nice and unexpected joy. Amazing work Mathias, I am truly a lifelong customer!

***Mathias*** · December 4th, 2009, 09:59

Cheers deimos, you're most welcome!
The auto parking brake is a trick to come around certain limitations, so much on that for now.
It switches off as you apply throttle.

The tailwheel is unlocked as you move the stick forward.
EDIT, I see what you mean. Jepp, the tailwheel lock is controlled by a gauge.
It requires to switch to VC view once so that it's getting initialized.

**deimos256** · December 4th, 2009, 10:05

Ok excellent news, NOW I'm off to fly!!!

***Roger*** · December 4th, 2009, 10:08

It's great that now it's available everyone can see what we beta testers have been enjoying for some time.

vstudios · December 4th, 2009, 10:08

Hi Mathias, good luck with the new variants they're looking exceptional.

**deimos256** · December 4th, 2009, 10:57

Just got back from my first flight and shes a dream. When flying the a7 i managed to break the artificial horizon. I read that its electrically driven and it said to lock it during aerobatics, well i was flying fairly straight except for the occasional bump here n there, do they just fail from time to time??
