Well it has to be a model that allows the feature and you then need to be in a user aircraft that is the same aircraft or one with a model that is by the same maker and closely related...That model is the Dreamfleet Baron (my Traffic version) my user aircraft in this case was Little Bandit (A Dreamfleet A36 Bonanza) and this model is very closely related to the Baron...The Baron is virtually a twin engined A36.

All I had to do was open Little Bandit's DV window...Then when the Traffic Baron came into range it opened its DV window...Simple! :lol:

A note of caution though Nigel...Some features are undesirable...Like chocks and pitot head covers for instance...If you park alongside the Traffic version and set your chocks and covers, then when he departs he will keep his chocks and covers on until he has flown out of range :lol:

Sorry Mark...We crossed :)

Hello Peter -
That is very interesting. I am just wondering if there is potential here for making amphibian AI land with the appropriate gear. Something like using a full model as a 'static' AI aircraft, only flying a quick circuit at midnight, one at the water airfield with wheels up/floats down and one at the land airfield with floats up and wheels down? Would that cause a corresponding 'active' AI plane to do the same?
I suspect it won't, but I would appreciate some expert opinions before I start mucking about with it again *-) :wall: :((
