warning!!!!

myself and several others have had their dll.xml wiped clean with the installer, before you install it, make a copy just in case

secondly i only get 5mins of play before the engine shuts down and it refuses to start both in flight and idle

they spoke of a installer scare this morning, i think it has happened for real, otherwise from what ive seen it look great so far

just need to sort out the engine thing then its all good

Who do you use to host your screens , dose take a little time to get use to it, I personally gone to the OZx Image hosting , little practice and away you go , I notice there is a re-sizer with this site so makes it handy for you.

Just to let you know, I have downloaded, installed, and completed a test flight of this bird, and, a nice bird it is. I still have to learn a little more about it to compare with RL but so far it's nice to fly. Oh, and no CTD's or any other weird behaviours in Prepar3d V2.

Cheers,

K.

First time i view one was around the early 1980s and it come in from the airport at one heck of a rate off knots and low level ... back then I was living opposite to the Riccarton racecourse , the Metro's introduction into New Zealand, later to find good friend was the one playing around with it smile.gif
