Mike,
If you have Crash & damage selected in your settings then you will suffer the same as Alex, if they are disabled then you are OK in FSXA. FS9 not affected even with crash & damage enabled!
I have though now reduced the g values in both the .air file & aircraft.cfg to same values as my Mohawk & Falcon.
Don't know how those two lines went AWOL, as all my other .cfg files have them!!!!
Elevator trim will need adjusting depending on pax - C of G change as you would expect. It does run out of trim though with full flaps.

I can confirm the added lines now work just fine in FSXSE. This aircraft flies very nicely too. :thumbsup:

Hi again Keith,
Just to clarify....

"Mike,
If you have Crash & damage selected in your settings then you will suffer the same as Alex, if they are disabled then you are OK in FSXA."

I double checked this, as I always had all damage turned on. Turns out that it's the "Aircraft stress causes damage" tick that causes the problem.
I recently reinstalled the A2A Piper Warrior, and the instructions said to switch off the stress option. "Detect crashes & damage" and "Collisions" don't upset the Gull. Sorry if I sound pedantic.

Not pedantic Mike, accurate, which is what one wants when Beta testing, so thank you for the clarification as I had not checked if it was either, just both!

Just uploaded to Flightsim 2048 x 2048 textures for FSX users, which I forgot to include in the original package. Should give a sharper texture image.
