Thanks for the positive comments, guys: I'm only too happy to be able to give something back, as well as to make 'our' aircraft fly as nearly as possible to 'as they were', I hope.

We DO need a bit higher profile for Classic British Files: if it helps to give them a small bit of exclusivity, I'll be posting all my releases only there for the forseeable future.

Next up should be the Beverley FDE/repaint/panel (not this week) :tuttut: and I will put together a set of packages of Canberra FDEs - including the ones I did in December - when I have completed the PR9.

Cheers,

Kevin

After all that has been said about avsim recently, and the long-a***d way of doing things at flightsim, I concur with Kev - I think CBF will be first port of call

Trouble at t'mill here lads.

I've d/l all the AEW Gannet bits,put them together as per Kevin's instructions (I think...gulp) and then tried to load 'er in with Fsimmanager.

FSM would'nt load it up,telling me there wasn't a model cfg file for the repaints :think: .

So I put 'er in manually(drag n drop) and it wouldn't show up at all.
I expected it to be in the "Fairy" entry,but no it weren't there :shock: .

Go back to basics my friend. Re-install the Gannet - Ito version as downloaded - & run FS to check that works. If it does, (quickly passing over the 'if it doesn't' bit

), then replace the 'Aircraft.cfg', 'Gannet.air' & the 'panel.cfg' files as necessary.

I did this, (having had a go at 'adjusting' the 'Aircraft.cfg' file my self - & ending up with an aircraft that bounced, even static/no power :sad:), and had no probs at all.

Just to go off at a slight tangent Bob, I've had a look at your Victor pics - looks like Ito sans tanker needs a bit of a makeover as well, change those big old sixties style roundels to the pink and blue etc.....what do ya reckon? Some good pics there by the way, now I know why you call yourself what you call yourself

Mark, and anyone else puzzled by non-appearance:

It appears that you win the prize for spotting my deliberate mistake :redface: !

Because I was working on both Gannets (AEW & AS), I renamed the model folders (in my setup) for each aircraft to avoid mixups. It seems that in doing so, I created a mixup, because I forgot to change back when I uploaded. Sorry.

To fix it, go to the new 'aircraft.cfg' file, find the line 'model=aew3' and correct it to read 'model='. Do this for each repaint.

Alternatively, you could rename the model folder 'model.aew3'.

Just don't do BOTH changes!
