No you offered a perfectly reasonable solution and it still may be something as simple as that - good try mate :wink:

Hi Leif,

I know it's not the Dave you wanted but suffice to say, I've not had a problem with that Lanc in 2004.. in fact, I've done quite some mileage in the old girl.
Just to make sure you have the fixes in order (there are a couple out there by different authors which seem to patch different things.. confusing!!) I'll send you the version I have :wink:

Cheers Dave

I did a fast search at all nodes and grabbed the first fix I saw - maybe the problem - I was in a hurry - wanted to get a printable screenie for
a nice older lady in Atlanta - to go with the screen shot of a certain
spit 16 that I took and she immeadiatly downloaded

:wink:

Leif

Now if someone would release their Mossie ----I have a paintjob for it

Hi Leif, sorry for the late reply.
I use the upgrade by Rick Rutherford (lanc3u11.zip on flightsim.com). Seems to work fine for me, though I haven't flown her for quite a while.

Leif,

Just a thought. Had a similar problem with a FS2002 aircraft.

Try hitting Shift/Ctrl/F4. It worked in my case, but it was probably a fluke.

Worth a try.
John
