Boeing B-797 Double Decker Flying Wing is Released!

Great bird, Lionheart. Despite what Aeromed says (above) I found it more nimble than I expected and unbelievably docile. A quick flight between Everett and Boeing Field was bracketed by a non-event takeoff and a non-event landing. :ernae:

BTW, there is an 89KB file "Boeing_797" without file extension.
What is it and where does it go?

Maybe nimble would have been a better word to use. It seemed a bit too responsive and stopped too quickly after any control surface input was back to zero, does that make sense?
Anyway I know it's just my take on the matter so I wanted to give it a little follow through on all axes. In fact now that I revisited it I think I went a little too far. Like I said a work in progress.

Hey Hawkeye,

That is the uninstaller file which my Installer didnt name properly. Go ahead and delete it.

I thought I had uploaded the new version Installer without that file. I removed the uninstaller completely.

Hey all,

There is a Build 1.1 coming out. Its actually out at AVSIM now and should be at Simviation soon as well as here. I am trying to get the file flipped here (replaced) so it has the same download link.

Fixes will include some Mods like Tom Clayton had created, such as the fix for the radios standby freq's, 2D panel mini panel view having open space between the screens, etc.

Other fixes and mods are for the FSX version which has nothing to do with us all here. :d

I will be making a refueler version as well. I was hoping to have it done by now. Hopefully very soon.

Have started on a repaint but having trouble running FS Repaint with it, it crashes the programme :(
Any ideas why? I dont have problems with any other aircraft with either hi res or low res textures.

Cheers
Tony

My Fsrepaint wont even read the model or show it.
 
Hey Tony,

It may be off the charts with polygons. Its created with FS9 Unlimited Export. The model is huge...

It is still a Gmax derived model though...
 
Bill, if you are making a tanker, and it's not too late, could you assign them to something that works in Recorder Module 1?
These are:

I see it doesnt have Carrier Hook. hmm...

Let me see what I can do. What I may have to do is some custom animation code switches. Thats if a want an alert gauge in the panel showing refuelers deployed, etc.

A trick that Mike Stone used way back on his KC-135R was to include a seperate model for AI. The refueling boom was animated with the landing gear. If the gear was up, the boom was down. That way, you could put it into your AI and practice refueling approaches with a nice steady tanker.
 
Another AI trick which I've seen on a VC10, and KC135, is the booms/drogues appear above 10,000ft. It just has a separate .mdl file
