Have I missed out on the Gary Russell CL44? I can't find it anywhere.

It's here Paul

It's the top of the topics section of New releases and Support Members only not on the min list. Scrolling down finds topics which is below the bottom of the screen on first look.

Thanks Garry. Fabulous piece of work! By the way, and this is something I have thought about with all the propellor driven aircraft I have seen in FS, is there any way the props can be made to come to a halt more slowly? When I used to watch Vanguards and Viscounts at Ringway it seemed to take an eternity for this to happen. I suppose the same goes for powering up.

It's difficult the way FS works

What I can tell you is there has been another beta since that and yet another was ready to go to test before my recent RL issues.

The late versions contain a lot more coding than that version and some of it is to do with the props and the way they behave and that is still under development.

But prop action is a default animation and to try and achieve something else need a lot of work and Fraser's the XML chap on this project.

The only reason I've been able to take it as far as it has taken, including this version was the poly bust method developed by Lionheat that enabled me to compile an FS.9 model which is about twice the size of the usual limit. That same limit is why the Superfreighter hit problems so I will be able to sort that out too sometime.

Without that poly-bust method there would be no cargo on board for starters..well certainly not the Flying Tiger containers.

And no ground equipment either

Other models will have different loads.

Thought as much!
