Introducing the Avia 51

@Nigel or Milton:

I just noticed one minor issue...When trying to steer in the water, I have little to no turning radius at all (the water rudders are down). In point.10 & point.11, I increased the 25 degrees to 35 degrees (see below), but to no avail....Am I overlooking something?....Can ya'll suggest any other ideas?

point.10 = 5, -19.104, -9.803, -7.93, 1600, 0, 0, 35, 0, 0, 0.65, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0
point.11 = 5, -19.104, 9.803, -7.93, 1600, 0, 0, 35, 0, 0, 0.65, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0

Thank You! :isadizzy:

The issue is the depth of the rudders. I will append the proper numbers shortly after testing. Leave the rudder deflection at 25 or less.

EDIT: This tests well ... rudders were slightly high, out of water.

point.10 = 5, -19.104, -9.803, -8.93, 1600, 0, 0, 25, 0, 0, 0.65, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0
point.11 = 5, -19.104, 9.803, -8.93, 1600, 0, 0, 25, 0, 0, 0.65, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0

Is that a Leopard? Fantastic work!!! Now I going to have to do something for the other cargo hauler if possible! ;)

Yep.. it sure is!. it took me a bit to try and figure out where exactly the "leopard" was... I kept looking at the screenie of the plane on the water, thinking a leopard was hiding on the shoreline somewhere....:isadizzy:

There are infact two!

In the Goodman Cargo, 'Kitty' (half hidden in the footwell) takes care of co-pilots who don't follow the rules. :)

I reckon you have all the bases covered, then. Oh wait! those "kittys" can also keep any would be opportunist from stealing the ouzo stash we pilfered a few weeks ago. It's a fine piece of work, exceptional... You guys never cease to amaze me with the quality of your artistry and imagination. :ernae:

If in FS9, you will want to fix the rudders as stated in post 1421 above.

You can download the effects and install separately as well.

Here is a wheeled version with reduced polys, reduced textures (Air France) and sizes, aliased sounds, package is about 2.2MB.

Thanks Milton! :salute: Will a Traffic file have to be created? :icon_eek:
Click to expand...

Yes it will. Do you have AIFP2? Excellent took for doing your own traffic setups.

EDIT: Since the air file is set for AI, I suspect FS automatically will use it for traffic as well and I have seen my AI aircraft all over the world at airports I had not set them up for.

Cargo is not the same

Hi. For some reason my cargo cabin is different...I don't have the African decor...just some seats and a jacket hanging up in the back?
