Love the Diamondback paint. This is a real special one for me.. My uncle flew the F-4J with the Diamondbacks on the Indy during the Med cruise!!!
Thanks again!!!!!:applause:
 
Thank you very much, gents, for your kind comments.

Dman, thanks for sharing that tidbit of family history. It helps add historical interest to our hobby. It also makes it very pleasing to me that something I do for fun was able to also bring a bit of pleasure to someone with a direct connection with the subject I chose. Please thank your uncle for me for his service to our country. Those were some pretty rough times for our military personnel, no matter what branch or theater served.

ATB,

Steve
 
I took the Diamond backs paint for a spin earlier Steve. Really great.... thanks. I do like the hi-viz era schemes for the F4.

Is there a way to get a view from the Rio seat (Back Seat)?

There is one already there. Just scroll through the views. It will come up in a very close up view of the right forward console or lower right panel, at least mine does.
 
Well, that worked. Now I am having issues gettng the Rio canopy to open. Only the Pilots will raise up. SHIFT + E+ 1 and SHIFT+ E + 2 right?
If so, then the back one doesn't raise. Hummmm........


Or is there some way in the cockpit I can open them. Some aircraft I've come across work that way.



Edit: Okay, I found the levers that raise/lower for both front and rear canopies.

Is this the only way to work them? For me, both canopies not responsive to standard keyboard commands.


I also found it odd that the manufacture is F4J when looking for the J bird, I would of guessed McDonnell or McDonnell Douglas

Also discovered how to get NWS responsive to my joystick. CTRL + N then I can twist the stick and the NWS will steer.

@ GE, MDIvey, and WH, thank you for your comments. Glad you like it. More on the way.

@ Gray Eagle, glad you got those things sorted. There is some really informative stuff in the manuals, especially re setting up your controllers using the Menu Manager. If you haven't already, I highly recommend you look through it.
