Like it. I am now going into a corner and repeating "I must be patient."

PS Any results from the IFR test?

No need to be patient, the FRS1 is now FREELY available along with the FA2.

as for the IFR, we have no idea, we did some testing, and could not find the problem, although we agree, there is a problem

we suggest you enjoy it as VFR until we figure it out

Fair shout, I am enjoying VFR. 'Tis the only Harrier I have managed with any degree of success so far. On me way for the FRS1 now.

Once again, many thanks.

Two excellent aeroplanes! - Thanks UKMIL!

I might offer a small suggestion for the FDEs: at the moment, the models have a +4/-3g limitation in (non-flapped) flight. While I don't know what the operational limits were on the Sea Harrier, I'm sure that they were higher than that.

As a personal mod, and to make high-speed manoeuvering possible, I've changed mine to +9/-6g.

For anyone who wants to change, the numbers are in the ".air" files (HarrierIPC.air in both the FRS1 and FRA2 -[wasn't it FA2 in service?]).

The lines you want are in the section '1101 Primary Aerodynamics', where on scrolling down, you come to

Positive G limit *936=3744 // change this to 8424

and

Negative G limit * 936=-2808 // change this to 5616

Just a thought.

Cheers, and thanks again,

Kevin
