Classic British Flight Sim

Hi All
Here's an odd one....Was doing a 'test flight' in my HS 748 using FSX and clear skies (whilst I get used to the AC) when I noticed a smoke trail following my AC...underneath..... I Don't have any 'smoke' in the cfg....using the FSX cfg kindly provided...so not clear what it is...


Does anyone please have any ideas as to what it might be please??
Thanks
Ralphc

Hi Ralph. This is an FSX bug. If you take off from a wet runway, the spray effect stays under the aircraft regardless of altitude or if the weather dries up. We noticed it years ago, I think it was when we were testing Daves Hunters or Ricks Hawk. It happens with the default FSX aircraft too.

Hi Ben...
Thanks so much for the reply...Well I never! Not seen it before Anyway, not to worry, I'll have to fly in clouds from now on. Still enjoy the AC though..now I can keep the engines running

You want to know rain? Come to B.C. The council recently decided to start charging us for mains water, so I thought, get a rain barrel, 65 gallons, it filled up this afternoon in 3 hours.

Hi Vancouver...

65 gallons, it filled up this afternoon in 3 hours.

Yipes! I'll say no more...that's HEAVY rain....BTW...just been downloading some Mesh for your part of the world...and very good it is too. Enjoy 'flying' there
