C-97 BETA now available for download!

I'm running 2.5. Yes I have tried the TO, it is like glued to the runway (no motion at all). I assume the KC-97 is supposed to take off with a full fuel load? I'll do some more testing this afternoon and post a screenshot. The strange thing is that after lifting the aircraft to altitude with the "y" button, and doing a full stop landing, then the aircraft behave normally.

Thanks!
 
It's a long shot Jens but are you starting P3D with a default aircraft? I don't know how P3D works as I don't have it but I know that by starting with a default model in FSX.. many 'ills' are cured.

Dave,

That cured it! Thank you for the advice. I have never seen anything like this problem before, but starting from a saved flight with a default plane solved it.

That's great news Jens:encouragement: I've started every sim back to FS5 this way (though there wasn't much in the default 5!!) and it's a pain in the butt sometimes but it sets the sim up with default values working. I then switch to anything I like with a very good chance that everything will work.

Hope it works for you too Alan;)

Steve..

I've found the aircraft in that shot I linked is from the 100ARS but I still can't find what the fin stipe colour should be?

Dave, in the link I posted, both the KC-97s and the B-47s pictured are from the 100ths- ARS and Bombardment, and, although the color photos aren't the greatest, one could interpret the tail stripes as "Black", barring any information to the contrary. If info becomes available at some later time it's a snap to correct or update.

Just sayin' ...

Rgr that Steve:encouragement: I was leaning toward dark blue or black anyway and as it's for my own amusement.. black will do nicely;)

A yc-97j

Thank you, Manfred....so, there's hope yet for a 97J....

If in any doubt, just google the aircraft and be prepared to be amazed. The 97J would have been totally revolutionary. Some of her specs and performance data...payloads, air speed, range would have given our modern transports great competition. I am grateful for the R7V! That is a pretty plane.

Thanks again for the reply.

Another Israeli Air Force Livery For KC-97 Please

Can any talented please please please be kind enough to paint this livery as seen below for KC-97? Thanks. IAF first used that livery for KC-97 but switched to no name or nameless livery later.

Thanks a zillion.
 
Just to show some current progress... this is the basic 'G' setup with an extra texture sheet for interior fittings. 0-30272 is one of the few survivors (in a manner of speaking) now languishing in the California desert. On the Monitor panel note the added entries for Doors 02 and 03, Steps, and Ramp. Door 02 and the interior fittings will also be added to the tanker versions. I'll create a new thread once the update is ready. Shouldn't be very long. All paints created so far will fit.

This is a 100th ARW KC-97G photographed at RAF Greenham Common in 1963. The Arctic Red application is a bit speculative as I couldn't find a photo, but is based upon the 1963 photo where areas have clearly been paint-stripped.

Here it as it appeared in 1963

Are you saying that all the KC97 repaints will fit this one or are there paints for this this specific model.....
