In other words, there is no intention to fix it, so unless you can, then delete those views. Am I correct in assuming that?

Right wire view

Why are you panning around behind you in a right wire view? As YoYo has already pointed out, this is a land-assist view, unless of course you are reversing onto the deck.

If you continue to pan around in the fixed camera views you will also find no landing gear, no tail wheel unit, no exterior canopy framing, no tail hook... my what were we thinking of....

True, but if you look out the right wing view, one notices the same deal with the wires hovering over the vert stab. Using your logic, I don't plan to land right wing first either

Guess I can just delete those views and it will then be a matter of no importance eh? I just thought that those wires would run true to life. Even in the views in question.
You've created a takeoff view which IMHO one would be sitting on a thick phone book with the seat fully raised. I just wanted to know why the wires in the views in question were not attached, that's all.....

**bazzar** · April 30th, 2015, 17:24

Sorry mate but you are going to have to provide pictures.
In external mode you have Tail,Landing View, Front,Right wing, Left wing.

All of these are based on the external model with everything in place.

In Interior mode you have Virtual Cockpit, TakeOff Landing view, Right wires, Radios, Electrical Panels,Left Console,

So what are you looking at?

can you put up a screenshot?

is it possible you have the view zoomed in or out - or are you using a different resolution in game from your monitors native res?

**Cirrus N210MS** · April 30th, 2015, 22:39

will the other fuel Tanks be added in the next patch? AUX and Res Tank?

**bazzar** · April 30th, 2015, 23:45

We're going to let the dust settle for a while. If there's enough demand we'll probably do something more in the fuel department, maybe external tanks too. It's all a matter of time and priorities. Nice pics mate.

**YoYo** · May 1st, 2015, 01:52

With update 1.1. Now is more polished aluminum effects...

. Pilot in "up" pisition:

btw. screenies not edited, just resized. Direct from FSX, Dx9.

Notice than old skins (F3F 1.0v) have a plastcard on the right side, near the tail in wrong place in 1.1v.

**MDIvey** · May 1st, 2015, 02:07

That looks superb yoyo.

**speedy70** · May 1st, 2015, 12:13

Just emailed PC Aviator.No update available yet although they admit they have it.

Cheers Chris

***binarkansas*** · May 1st, 2015, 12:43

It's up on PC Aviator now, just downloaded and flew it around the patch.

**UnknownGuest12** · May 1st, 2015, 16:10

Just e-mailed Aeroplane Heaven...unable to find the patch anywhere...either pc pilot or AH. Think they should advise clients about patches...

Regards

PS: got it...but they should tell people how....

**bazzar** · May 1st, 2015, 20:54

Sorry, I thought we had... this from earlier in this thread...

"Just updated our own customers ( we love you all equally but only in a platonic way mind you ) so they should receive their links in their email inboxes. The vendors have been notified and the files been uploaded to their servers. We're working on a new idea/layout section on the product pages so it will be easier for people to check updates/upgrades/offers with their products, that isnt online just yet though."

**TeiscoDelRay** · May 2nd, 2015, 05:57

Cannot find the patch anywhere on PC Aviator (where I purchased it)

**MDIvey** · May 2nd, 2015, 05:58

Great just got better...got Ver 1.1 now. Just need that superb repaint of yours YoYo to complement it.

Bazzar... I noticed on the Advertizing banner in the shop I used, it showed an F3F with the Corky the Cat emblem (Is that VF3... I don't know) but I didn't see one of those in the product... Is that paint available anywhere?

Matt

Not released yet, sorry. I found Today one "bug" with markings so this skin of Marine Corps VMF-2 needs improve.... but on my desktop is a new skin. Now it's the time for US Navy and BiG "E". This plane was used also in "Dive Bomber" movie from 1941:

Some of new weathering effects, proper labeling, new spec and alpha files for better metal effects and for sure, the new pin up Girl ; ).

**Bomber_12th** · May 2nd, 2015, 14:13

It looks neat and really nice in bare metal, but the Navy never operated these or any of their other carrier aircraft in bare metal, they were all silver-painted (anodized skins below). They had to be this way, operating in salty air/sea conditions.

Hmmm, that's interestng, which shop? No idea where they got that from, we certainly haven't ever used the Corky emblem, even in the original!

**skyhawka4m** · May 2nd, 2015, 18:12

Is this an all new airplane?

**Dumonceau** · May 2nd, 2015, 21:59

Yes it is Skyhawk! Comes in two delicious flavours: FSX and P3D v2.x!

IMHO it is a must have!

It was the flightsim.com shop. Its no biggy... I just liked the look of it. I've made a screen grab I can send you if you pm your email but you should be able to see it if you go to the shop front page and look at the animated banner at the top.

@Bomber_12th.
Thx Bomber for info, good to know for the future.

I hope than You will like this new skin too.

Btw. it will be nice if in the future the Localizer in F3F (VOR) will work together with TacPack. Now it dosen't work.

**DaveB** · May 3rd, 2015, 10:52

Good grief. They've used a plastic model of an F3F-1

Now people will write asking why we don't have bumps on the cowling! We sent them a trailer load of screenshots.
