Well done Larry :welldone: I thought it was Millbrook but I had to check. I had the map running in the corner of the screen, which I cropped out in the screenshot, as it showed Egtc (Cranfield) on my flightpath. A bit of a dead giveaway :lol:

I knew there was a MIRA test track somewhere down that way from back in the 80's when I still lived in the UK but it wasn't that one so I Googled 'test track south of Birmingham UK' and that was among the first hits!

Naturally, my first thought was that Dale's shot included the Food Bowl of the UK :hide:
OK, I followed your link, Larry.
This led me to discover yet another area of my ignorance :$
Some helpful folks tried to explain, but it's too much for me:
For now, we will consider sinusoidal signals to be any time-varying function with the following form:

(1.)
f(t)=Acos(ωt+θ)

Where:

A is the amplitude of the sinusoid.
ω is the frequency (in radians/second) of the signal.
And θ is the phase angle of the signal.


Fail,fail,fail, fail,fail.

I recognised Millbrook. It's not too far from me.
Nice choice of aircraft as well. :thumbsup: :lol:

She's a great aircraft Dave The bright cockpit makes her ideal for sightseeing. I discovered if you create the route in Msfs planner before you fly, you can get the Co pilot to fly it for you. Gives you time for photos and a brew if you want :lol:
I've noticed I have the duplicate panel bug with her. (a second instrument panel gets intermittently overlaid) The Head wind A330 has the same issue, that many complain about, although the dev says he's fixed it on the latest update. Can't find any info of what he did. No big issue as the cockpit returns to normal if refreshed.

I've heard of that problem with some other aircraft, but I've only seen it when I've been re-compiling the aircraft in dev mode. I think I know what the problem is, it's both the interior and exterior models being shown at the same time. It's really an Asobo bug, there is a work around but it would involve quite a bit of work so I'm hoping they just fix the bug!
