Hey HvyEng, why don't you zip up what you used and upload it here?

That way we have it even if you clean up your attachments.

Looking good

Sounds that are part of the package are good---loud--- and "borrowing" outside aircraft views is easy.
Taxi seems good to me at minimum throttle gets a few knots. Runway landings are stable. Carrier traps require more precise attention to weight, flaps, speed, and AoA. I'm currently using 145 KIAS with 3rd flap position and very low fuel weight, only crew weight in payload. Speed brakes are not extended. In package one the F-4B and F-4J get my hours. I bought it long ago, moved it into FSX, and used an update for the cockpit.

It is great to have the other 2 packages and plenty of checkflights lined up, lol. Love that Weasel.

But that update is now old apparently going back to May 2007. And was for a 2D panel which I very rarely use.

It is likely current efforts will prove better.

Ditto here - stick to this and it is fairly easy (e.g. at least compared to the AS Crusader or Vigi) to do consistent good traps without a crash. I trap with crash detections on.

Looking forward to trying your VC texture fixes - thanks Dan.

Also, for Pack 1 does anyone know of a panel.cfg update that isolates all the problematic gauges? I have swapped some out but one in particular, I think it is "Tornado RadarAlt" or something like that causes at least 4 error messages on each flight load which is annoying, but I cannot see any gauge with a name like this in the gauge entries. Suspect it is embedded in some other gauge, or maybe it's just that I am blind . .
 
The Basic Fix

The basic fix I made for Pack 1 is in the FSX Add-ons Panel section here, avsim, and flightsim. There are a couple extras in the .cab for you panel guys. Enjoy!

I'm still working on a merge of my 2D with the Pack 1, as previous posts here have linked...Don
