Peter - I have a nice spit 2D that I use when Im not doing VC evaluation on it
However I think this VC might even make you a convert :roll Like DaveB
Ive actually ordered TrackIR for it - well that and a couple of others produced here locally :wink: Ed is going to great lengths to get everything correct, as an example I think we went through 4 beta versions in as many days after
his recent return to the states from Old Warden - Ed If your reading you really need to do a little story of how this beastie came about and the lengths
you have gone to get it RIGHT...Ok enough commercials the only complaint I would have is it doesnt have that peculiar coughing f@8ting sound of a Merlin throttled right back on the approach :lol: :lol:

To quote one of our technical advisors...
"Popping- it's a bad thing - it may blow out the flame traps. Also, it changes the engine from engine driving prop to prop driving engine which puts undue mechanical strain on the motor."

I am intending to make it happen, but you shouldn't do it intentionally...!

The story of the lengths taken to get this right might get told at some stage, but I'm still working on it so I need to finish the story first :wink:

I still think (as in the Lanc), that the blue uniform of the pilot is far to light in colour :roll: Just a thought.

The guy was very puzzled, until he realised that he still had the reflective dot stuck to his forehead!

(And no - I don't have a TrackIR - it wasn't me guv!)
I like that.............I like it a lot. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I've already been told off about the pilot's uniform - it will be changed ;) He's untextured as of yet, but he's pretty accurately equipped.

Ed,

Those are some of the more "artyer" screenshots I've seen. Looks good enough to buy!

I too would like Track Ir but my other half thinks I'm mad enough as it is I would risk getting laughed out of the house.

Just a thought - In my next life (FS(XXXX) perhaps?) I must remember a crucial interview question for future spouse - do you like PCs and flying?

Regards,
Chris
