For those who own the JF Chipmunk, an SP has been released. Many thanks to the Just Flight team!

Dear Sir/Madam, We thought we'd let you know that we have just uploaded new software for the DHC-1 Chipmunk and also the DHC-1B-2 Bubble Canopy package. The new software fixes all reported issues where possible, and a new Download is now available for each aircraft.

If you log in to your Just Flight account and click on 'Your Orders' you will be able to download the new software for each aircraft - please update the DHC-1 Chipmunk BEFORE the DHC-1B-2 Bubble Canopy variant. Best wishes,
The Just Flight crew

Yes its a new version of the product due to the numerous improvements/fixes. Uninstall the existing version and then install the new version after downloading it from your account.

Early days for me as have been out aviating today (weather was too nice to stay indoors and do housework!)....but nice to see that the engine cowling has been refined and that the tailwheel moved to its correct position. Flown one of the British civilian examples (with now the underwing registration) and an RAF machine. Take off has improved a lot, bit still finding brakes a little fierce. Entry speeds for loops and rolls, were just under that quoted in the notes and from what I can remember (but still ok), but found initially and it may be due to my home setup, that cruise and landing speeds were high - any excuse to buy a new stick or to give up completely! Would have liked it to roll on a little upon touchdown, but hey these are just my own personal thoughts.

I appauld Just Flight for listening to us with our comments and suggestions and making the necessary changes where possible and applicable. There can't be many people out there that follow these leads.

Going back for more tomorrow,

Happy Landings,

Martin

She's a real lovely

Question... is the mixture lever suppose to be set to the back position... I thought it it was forward position

 

[bazzar]

That is correct, we had it going the wrong way. In fact some machines had a small lug on the throttle to catch the mixture lever and carry it back so that for novice pilots mixture was always returned to full for landing.

 

[dhasdell]

Got it now. Thanks to Bazzar, Martyn and all at JF Towers. Making all those changes must be a lot harder than just saying "If you're not happy we'll give you a refund", but it's a lot better.

Hi Peter

Still very much enjoying your Meteors for the Royal Danish Air Force. Lovely paints, bringing back lots of memories.

Should you once again feel tempted to revive the former glory of the Danish Airforce, I may in all modesty suggest the following

Peter: where are you uploading your repaints, please?

Hi Guys. Thanks for the encouraging comments.
Yes, Soeren I will attempt a Danish Air Force paint when I move on to military examples.
I have just uploaded a London School of Flying multipack of four aircraft to FlightSim.com so could well be available tomorrow.
