Thank you all!
Yes the IVP is on my list but certainly we will release first and simple IVM package (only the 2 tanks configuration) and after the all package( clean, 2 tanks, various weapons and refueling pod)...
If in the meanwhile I have the time to modify the exterior model (mainly the nose and adding recco pod) and the built the VC (the same 3D gauges in different places in order to make room for the recco commands) the IVP will be into the included.
If not, I will make another release later...
It doesn't matter for me, I've got still a long way to go with the Etendards! After the IVM and IVP, I have the IVP "modernized" (the one with the camo scheme paint with an enhanced avionic) and then the Super-Etendard (SUé) and at least the Super-Etendard Modernized (the current SEM)...
I prefer do not speak about time line in order to keep my moral high (lol)

It's about time the Etendard is introduced to FSX. Looks great! :salute:

Hi!
Many thanks, I'm glad you like this plane!
This manual is a guide maid by Michel Panattoni, my advisor in chief, a former EtendardIVM an Crusader pilot. It explains in detail some navy procedures used for EtendardIVM naval ops. It covers some Zephyr, Crusader and Alizé procedures too, and a former LSO had validated all of that!!
Trust me, this document is full of navy experience
For now, the pdf is in French, sorry... but I will do my best to translate it (and also the future EtendardIVM manual) in English before the release...:salute:
Regards,
Sylvain
Hi,
Here is a little video to show you a funny feature added to my Etendard : I call it the "LSO approach control"
Using Neutrino's macros for Carrier Tacan (thanks again Neutrino!!) and Acceleration's sound files, it checks regularly your carrier approach playing different and appropriate LSO sound files.
Now, you don't need to fly FSX carrier mission anymore to ear the LSO voice :mixedsmi:
Nota: in this video, you can ear the French Acceleration LSO voice
Nota2: we added a canopy transparency possibilty in order to have a pilot view more realistic (in the real life, 2 eyes help to see "through" canopy elements)
very nice
Amazing!
Pete!

Great to hear!!!
Just finished the manual Sylvain posted yesterday...I'm prepared!!
Cheers
Hi!
Yes we're looking for a first release soon. We call it "beta" because this release will not cover our desired scope, but it has been already tested.. so may be, the most appropriate term should be "pre-release"...
Anyway, we're working on some gauge issues and the documentation before starting to packaging.
An English version of the manual is on my to-do-list ... but days have still only 24hours each...:isadizzy:
Regards,
Sylvain
I wouldn't worry about an english manual rollus never released one for his mirage and we managed to figure that out between us on here, I'd just concentrate on the actual aircraft itself cause it's your baby so this is just my impateint opinion

Silvain, we who have waited all this time greatly appreciate all your efforts as well as those who have worked on the project with you. We will be very grateful for the initial release as well as the following full release when the time comes. No worry about the manual, we can translate it over if need be! Looking forward to launching and trapping off of Clem with this fine model!

Complement of information
On French Royal Navy web site, with the Etendard IVM "Manuel de vol"
( flight manual ) there is also to download a 21 pages "Tutorial Appontage
et Catapultage" ( Carrier Take Off and Landings tutorial ) writen by
Michel Panattoni.
In real life, Mr Panatonni is a retired french naval officer and was during
its naval career a real Etendard IVM pilot ( !!!!! ).
This tutorial covers 4 x french naval bases operations plus carrier operations
and detailed carrier circuits for french naval Etendards, Crusaders, Alizés and
Zephyrs naval aircrafts.
Like the Flight manual. this tutorial is also in french language but with a good
online french to english traductor it is quite easy to translate.
Thanks to the RFN Team for this well detailed tutorial !

I am very much looking forward to this! It looks excellent!
Hopefully there is a chance of seeing it early this weekend?
Before the arrival of this superb FSX Etendard IVM you can already download

and arrestor cables.

Tony Mezieres and our friend Sylvain Parouty.
