Famous Flyer #6 Ford 4-AT Trimotor - (Free June 23-30)

Bit of an update today and fixed the smoke on start effect. On first try it looks like it has broken the repaints, though...

Just had a short flight - is it my imagination, or have they drastically shortened the nose in this update ?

Rather against expectations, this Trimotor is rapidly becoming a favourite aircraft.

Changelog:

* The nose and cockpit of the aircraft has been redone to better reflect the time period of the model.
* The floats have been remodeled / repositioned to better reflect the time period of the model.
* Smoke / exhaust effects from the engines have been repositioned to eject rearward.
* The aircraft is no longer an option for towing gliders.
* Depending on where you are in the world, the VFR squawk code will default to 1200 or 7000.
* The color arcs on the HUD’s airspeed indicator have been revised to better match the v-speeds.
* Issues with the icing effects have been fixed.
