Question for the people who ported the C9 Phantom to FSX

[Dumonceau]

Hi Guys,

The C9 Phantom has been a favourite of mine since the FS9 days. I was elated when Henk and team succeeded in porting over the model to FSX.

However, I've tried to install the plane into P3D (as I no longer run FSX), and I cannot get the thing to start nor fly.

Is there a workaround for this?

Cheers,

Dumonceau

Johan, the Cloud9 F-4 is an FS9 compiled model which means you cannot click any VC switch in P3D. The workaround is to use the key commands/popup panels to operate the thing. This is how you get it started:

1. Select the aircraft state popup [Shift+1], then select "Ready to Start"
2. Start the engines with the auto start key command [Ctrl+E]
This is one of the many reasons why FSX is still my sim of choice...

Thanks Henk! You honour this sites motto "let being helpfull be more important than being right" and that at breakneck speed! Thanks again!

EDITY: works like a charm (except for the RADAR and pipper)
