Hm...Delta or another one for a start?

[txnetcop]

Absolutely the best freeware 727 offering I have ever seen for a tube liner in FSX!

[robcap]

Downloaded, installed, and about to fly

[heywooood]

its really well done !

but I need to switch (reduce) the engine smoke effect and I cant find the reference to it in the aircraft.cfg or in the FSX main effects folder...

I wanted to substitute another effect in the .cfg OR remove the heavy black smoke altogether

can anyone give me a steer ?

[PRB]

Nice. Very nice! Thanks Thomas Ruth!

The smoke reference is most likely hardcoded into the model.

The only option would be substituing Tom's smoke for another one with the same filename.

ok - just got home from the SB party - congrats to all the Packer fans

Thank you Thomas for another great tubliner.

Can anybody tell me how to fix the Nav Lights, they seem to be reversed, i.e. Red where it should be Green and Green where it should be Red.


Smoke fix works fine.

Hm. United next?

Hm. United next?

I've been watching this tube with great anticipation - nice to see it's hit the air.

I know it's just dreaming, but my two votes would be

1) CP - what I'd fly around in as a kid domestically (I know that's the 100 model, not the one actually modelled, but I'm not complaining). It would also depend on how the model handles polished metal textures ....



2) Iberia (retro) what I'd fly around in as a kid when visiting relatives in Spain. While the current livery is artistically clever, it doesn't inspire anywhere near the memories and classic appeal of the classic 70's liveries ...



Again, many B727 airlines out there, all at least as deserving - just throwing my personal faves into the ring.

thanks,

dl

Anyone else having this issue....

When I select the aircraft by "Thomas Ruth" the luftansa model does not show
If I look under "all" there it is...

Looked in the .cfg file and can not seem to figure it out

Ideas?

I have been using this plane and have had no problems with it at all. This is exceptional work especially considering it is freeware.
