De Havilland DH 103 Sea Hornet NF 21 FSX is Out

I seem to be having trouble with it, I take off Ok and then the engines cough and splutter and catch fire?

Everything is in the green, so not sure what I am doing wrong?
 
Do you have FSX SP2 or Acceleration?

I was on the beta team for this one and had no problems in Acceleration.

I just did a quick test flight from RNAS Culdrose to St. Mawgan around the coast and everything was fine.

Check Coles Specials and Big W Catalogue.
 
No fires here noddy!

Enjoying an obscure aircraft that wouldn't see the light of day but for Rob! :ernae:

Noddy do you have 'Engine stress damages engine' checked in the FSX Realism setting page?

If so try turning it off for the Hornet. I just turned it back on here (I normally set it to off unless I am using an Accu-Sim aircraft) and get the same flaming engines if it is active and you run full bore at low altitude.
 
That did the trick Larry, many thanks.

:salute:

This setting will damage the engines if you get past the maximum manifold pressure.
When you said that "everything was in the green", did you include the manifold pressure too ?
 
flight automatically trys ends

hmm every time I load the plane, the flight automatically pulls up the flight end window. I have to select the option not to end the flight.

also the plane loads with the engine off and I cant get it started....

Any ideas?
 
No problems running in FSX Acceleration. Son of Mossie so naturally I love it. Nice Job! :ernae:

Glad to see the general consensus is positive

no downloading problems ??? makes me think w might have cracked that problem over at the Pond.

Rob has a Single seat (nice nose) Sea Hornet and a stock Hornet in the works too.


by the way - the over boost problem -- might I suggest you download Dave Gerrams gracious

gift of the Pilots Notes for the aeroplane (also at The Pond).


Cheers

Thanks for this, I have a soft spot six miles wide for the Hornet. Great news about the single-seat versions too, I'll watch for them! :jump:
