I don't know why, but I had no idea that the Buccaneer had been released. Off to download it!

I didn't know Ark had approach/landing lights either side of the flightdeck either :o :think:

Didn't know the Bucc had black RH flaps either :o

Is this a WIP or some other mixture?? :think: Always pleased to see UKMIL releases/screenies but neither the content nor comment make a lot of sense.

Gents, I've got aircraft shadowing switched on which is what's caused the 'black' flaps. Re Ark Royal, That's how Ark royal's appeared to me since I installed it and that's how it shows on the flying stations website. A question for its designers?

Its a pairing I quite like and to be honest, doesn't do the pair much justise. Needs to have been better thought out rather than a collection of shots taken on my multiple attempts of trying to land on the thing which isn't a easy task flying with the mouse and keyboard.

Hi Jon :wave:

Tks for that ;-) I'm sure I have the Ark in FSX somewhere here so I'll have a look. Unfortunate some folk managed to load it ok first time and others never got to see it at all.. even in FS9 :-(

Is it me (or overcontrolling?) but the RH flaps seem to full and the LH at about 20 degrees!

Hi Trev..

In that shot above, the RH side are definately down further than the left. Should make for interesting landings! :o

Well shiver me timbers.. my memory is getting worse than I thought :lol: Of course there are lights either side of the deck ;-) Just managed to find my FSX version and see my drivers aren't keen on em though :-( Whopping frame hit too :roll:

They look much better in '9 and no frame hit :rock:
