Cheers Naki, there is the old alpha 141 that runs in fsx, but it looks a bit odd......might give it a go anyway.

I've got to ask. Why are the two outboard engines on the Herc feathered?

I think it's a consequence of swapping from a 2 engine to a 4 engine aircraft mid-flight?

I'd say the fuel crossfeed was rigged differently on the previous plane, but when it switched it reset it and was sucking fuel from an empty tank. I think.

At the price of fuel these days it is a good price saving practice for a four engine aircraft to shutdown two engines it almost halves the cost of flying

Connor , its the latter .... when taken screens , Marty is under a cloth standing on one leg holding a tray off gunpowder so as to get the right shot at the right time in the right light right on the time the shot was taken , this is due to system requirements , the one shoe and whether or not he is going to keep the gunpowder dry for that very shot , hence you may say he would have his hands full so to speak , we are trying to get most on this forum to get quality screens and if not getting the two outside engines started is what it may take currently so be it .. Marty you could have dived it .. what i saw in the RERUNS of Memphis Belle .

Your just about right there Ian.....each screen takes age's.......and Connor, i think your right too, not good to change aircraft mid flight.
