    Ten built. The RAF used five as trainers.

    That's a neat little plane. I'm off to look for it.

    Update: Was that "Ted Cook" web site?

    Link for Ted Cook's site:

    http://www.tedcook.btinternet.co.uk/

    Can't find the little Cygnet there though.

    I found the Ted Cook Cygnet at:


    http://www.tedcook.me.uk/library/page3.html

    It's also listed at Simviation under Edward Cook:

    HOWEVER, neither has an RAF skin in the kit !

    Thanks to mention it, sorry but I have a link through My Favourites...

    Nice site, deserves a visit for small wonders, easy to convert to CFS II, like a Miles Hawk Speed Six in SCW colours, and the whole Auster family....

    Nice week-end to all of you from rainy Northern France...

    There's a good reason...

    I did the painting and converted it for CFS2...

    Question Curiosity...?

    I just d/l'd and installed the Cygnet and the Follower...

    Both planes as delivered cause a CTD in my installation(s) - something about a MCVs*.dll conflict. I checked them both for and removed the
    lightstates line in their respective MDLs AFTER the crash, but it did not solve the challenge. No other planes cause this.

    This rarely happens with a Pepe'-conversion - any suggestions ?

    At my equipment they show no problems at all. At the Shadower did you try to use the unarmed dp?

    Try this attached DP and tell me. Believe it or not, BOTH have breakable parts and I kept them at the DP.DPs.zip

    Exclamation Better...

    Adding your DP file allowed me to select the Cygnet and Follower from the FF Menu, but I had to switch out the panels for another or I would get a Panels.dll CTD.

    [I dropped in a working Bf-109 panel as a test, and flew quite happily away...]

    I'll work on modified Panels and DPs later tonight and see if I can get them to play nicely - the cockpit glass is NOT transparent either, so I'll work on an alpha fix for that too....

    Flies wonderfully, tho - Great job, Mr R !!!

    Thank You

    Angry Well Hmm...

    UPDATE:

    I was able to build a decent transparent window image; However, the DP file will not run thru my newer version of DPEdit - I use Ver 1.21, Pepe's was done in 1.20, and it crashes if I hand-edit the file.

    Very odd - and the DP that he posted above is for a 4 engined Follower, not the Cygnet. It works to make the Cygnet fly, but is incorrect, and any changes to the file cause a CTD....

    Anyone else ever have a DP file that crashed CFS2 when modified ?

    Lastly, the panel as included shows all the gauges too high on the panel, and moving them down w/ ConfigEdit does nothing.....

    This is a first for me...
