Ca-13 Boomerang By Akemi

After trying the AH Boomerang (meh..not bad) I popped into the CFS2 forum and revived a topic that was over a year old about Akemi's Ca-13 Boomerang (click). The gang there was kind and provided all the information I was looking for, and more. Rami even posted links for a couple real nice paints by Morton.

I couldn't find any other sounds, so I tossed the sound file from the AH Boomerang in there. Akemi did a nice 2D and VC, ..and Morton did some fine paints.

I like the way the original .air file is, but, it needs some serious tweaking to get it usable in FS04. Just for sh*ts & giggles I tossed the air file in there from the AH model. I did not like that because it took a lot away from what I feel the Boomerang should be for responsiveness & agility.

I'm really hoping that this one will be approached by members here to get it dialed in and tuned for FS9. It's a great model!!!!

Claudius, I like the dynamics much better. More responsive and feels more life like

I did change two things that make it a bit better

[piston_engine]
cylinder_displacement=180.604400 (was 130)

and
[brakes]
toe_brakes_scale=1.500000 (was 1.0)

and
[flight_tuning]
elevator_effectiveness=1.5 (all were 1.0)
aileron_effectiveness=1.5
rudder_effectiveness=1.5

I'm going to look through my props to find a better texture also
