AN2 Is Here

Super enjoyable. Really hoping for the following (the black one with the modern GPS avionics, and the Interflug with the standard cockpit).

I didn't know about the movable light tubes, but I was trying to figure out if those two window fans could be turned on.

Indeed they can. Switch for the left one in the side panel to the left of your seat just by the pneumatics knob. Can't remeber where the right hand fan switch is, but there is one. :)

It's behind the right Yoke. Two switches one inop and one for the right fan On/Off. Nice sound (what else is new..), funny enough they didn't apply a typical 'Off' sound, it just fades away... I'm glad that there actually IS a teensy weensy issue to complain about. Wouldn't be natural if it wasn't, wouldn't it. :)

Btw, i swear i can feel the fans' airflow with my VR helmet on !

Thanks for the information on the location of the left fan switch.
What I still can't find is the click spot to close the rear cargo doors that open outward. I can open them with the door handles, but once the doors are open, the handles are out of sight.
I've clicked just about everything trying to get them to close.
A plane like this really should come with at least a simple manual that explains these little things like the fans and opening and closing doors, who knows how many other things are there that noboby has found yet?

When it's open the entry doorhandle can still be clicked from the front of the door, right ? When the cargo door is open you may need to lower your view a bit then you can just see the cargodoor handle up there in the air. Just move your pointer over that aera and the cargo doorhandle will turn blue. Click it and Bob's your uncle i.e. both doors will close.

True. Then again i think it's part of the fun finding stuff out. Like a computer puzzle game (Myst springs to mind, loved that a lot! ;-) One thing does apply here, the model needs to deffinately be worth the trouble. And if anything is it sure is this AN-2 ! ;)
 
Now I'm puzzled.

I've been having challenges landing Annie as she seemed quite slippery, even with the flaps down.

Then someone on the MSFS Forum suggested that the version with the GNS was OK. Sure enough it seems to behave differently; the flaps have more drag. It looks like the flight model didn't quite get cloned between the two versions, since I can't imagine having a GNS actually makes any difference......:indecisiveness:
 
Do you have idea which keys are ressponsible for oil shutters from An-2 in MSFS?

As long as power is switched on to the shutter motors (one of the switches on the main panel, can't remember offhand which one), the oil shutters and cowl flaps are the two toggle switches side by side at the right rear (copilot's side) of the throttle console. Cowl flaps are on the right, oil shutters to the left of that. You can see them here in this English-labeled example.

Good news! According to the Dev Twitch Stream yesterday there's a patch incoming for Annie on the 11th of the month......
