vikings w/ spinners

[circleman]

Some viking repaints show spinners, others show propellor hubs.

Did some operators use the varsity/valetta instead?

sorry, new on this side of the pond.

Hi cman

By and large BEA flew with spinners and the idependants flew without.

No idea why

The Valetta is different to a Viking in a few ways and the Varsity was a completely new design with very littl common to the other two. The RAF usually used spinners

Hi Cman

There is only one model...there is a key that turns the spinner on or off but I can't remember which.

Hi Guy's..

You'll find it's the U/V lighting that turns the spinner on and off. Funny you're only seeing spinners.. I was hacked off by not seeing any Open the overhead panel and on the bottom you'll see a row of round rheostats. Click on the control point there and your spinners will either appear or disappear as required ;-)

'i Don'r know about U/V lighting.too clever for my brain cell STUPID

It's the "O" key that toggles it but just now when I tried it only after CTRL E was activated to start....The key is mentioned it the Read me that perhaps wasn't RTFM :o :roll:
