That sale at JustFlight was very nice... (yes, I am weak).

And the second one:

Now I guess I need to read some manuals... I could start the Hunter without issues from cold&dark, but the generator (or avionics?) switch never switched to ON, leaving my radios silent ("no electrics" in the ATC window)... The frustrating thing is that the generator switch is right there, but not clickable...

Hi Penz,

Could I ask where you got the Donnet Leveque? It's a fascinating aircraft and looks great in the sim.

Cheers,

Scott

Sadly, it's not a proper Donnet-Leveque Scott, it's a Lohner S model I found on https://www.classicwings.net/.
It's the closest resemblance of the Danish flying boat I have been able to find, so that is what I used for the repaint.

Ahh. I see. I had no idea what it was to start with anyway, so did some searching. Still a nice and interesting aircraft. Thanks for the info.

Cheers,

Scott

Out for a very quick flight.

I'm having so much fun with P3D v4 that I just keep pulling old stuff out of the hangar to see what works. I added the Iris F-20 using the ".xml" method and had to do some debugging because gauges isn't spelled guages. Spell it wrong and you don't get gauges! I can't however get the HUD working and the afterburner looks terrible.

Is there a way to use a different afterburner? Thanks.

On my laptop computer, the pictures I posted in my message above don't appear. I'm woefully unfamiliar with the picture posting process, so I'm going to post a few more for practice. Thanks for your indulgence.

Speaking of: There was a Navy T-45 pranged in eastern Tennessee today. Killed both crewmen. There are unconfirmed rumors that the oxygen system has been becoming toxic to pilots lately. May possibly explain how neither crewman ejected before the crash. Hard to do if you've passed out from hypoxia/poisoning. I would think the Instructor would be well trained in what to do, though. The Navy has some really good quality training devices for hypoxia training in particular, but it can be so insidious, it can get ya before you can recognize it and grab the green ring...

Still, my thoughts go out to the families. I hope they solve the mystery of the crash cause, just to give them closure.

I went through the same exercise. I was able to get a very reasonable HUD using the F22 HUD from the Raptor Driver (with some minor position/size adjustments in the gauge parameters).

You may be out of luck with the after burner. AFAIK it's part of the exterior MDL so not at all easy to tinker with.

We were taught in the altitude chamber during basic flight training to recognize the effects of hypoxia, the solution was to go to 100% o2 with the mask...in 10 years of flying, I never doubted my O2 supply or any of my life support equipment. Can't imagine what those T-45 squadrons morale is right now.

Thanks for that tip. I'll give it a try.
