I hate to resurrect this thread to moan about stuff, but who does not like the good 'ol Antonov An-2 ?

Until just a day or two ago the smothering heat down here in the Heart-o-Dixie has driven me to do some simming up in Alaska.

I got underway at that very little dirt strip KEB Nanwalek, one of the original airfields (before any World updates or Sim updates)

Anyways, I could not get the panel switch for the parking brake to release the brakes to work

I looked in the PDF file (linked above) on p.13-14 and saw that there is a parking brake release behind the yoke (imaged by # 133 in the manual). I'll have to go back and see if I get to it.

I know that some of the Sim updates (Bing Map data) in the past have given us green, [green] tinted roads and interstate highways and you can see my aircraft icon position near the airstrip, as I climb out in this screenie,
