D...many thanks for the beautiful and fun little trainer

Question 3 different panels? does it pick the one I need
looks like you deleted one of the model option? correct
Two aircraft config? does it also pick the one needed

Thank you again DC
 
Dino,

Thank you SO much for your creations. I am always excited to download, install, and fly everything
you release.

VERY much appreciated!

Ye thanks, its a Joy to fly, only have one question have you sorted out the landing light issue yet, then it will be perfect.

Cheers
 
All: thanks a lot for your appreciation and comments...of course the are some things that could be improved, as some of you mentioned, but it is nice to know that people are enjoying your work. Grazie!

Dino, if your forth-coming Tomcat for FSX is anything like this one, you've mastered the craft of model-building !! The T-45 is outstanding! I've been flying it for the past couple of days and been enjoying it immensely. Nice work, sir....:applause:
 
Yep Dino, it gets better with each version, just a splendid looking and flying jet.

Dino just made a progress report on the Tomcat. http://indiafoxtecho.blogspot.com/20...rials-and.html so it is getting closer. The T-45C he has released in version 1.51 just a few days ago shows more improvements (I've flying the dickens out f it). :ernae: I'm checking the Goshawk and can trap most of the passes. It seems to me that the Goshawk demands full flaps, gear and hook down, of course, and air speed brakes out with throttle about half to have 100 KIAS and green AoA.

I can't seem to get the wireCaught gauge to work. I'm in Vista.

Still can't upload screenys, so later for that.
 
Thanks (and few replies)

Thanks a lot for your appreciation.
The Goshawk is likely to have another update in few weeks - probably the last for a long while...the major geometry rework in V1.50 has caused several minor problems that are slowly emerging. Also, I will add optional external loads (baggage pods and training bombs).

I have to confess I am quite happy with the the new Tomcat...but it is a complex machine to simulate and I will need to make some compromises. I tried to release the Beta before Easter, but had no time to complete the cockpit so far, and the flight model has some issues during carrier approaches.

@doublecool - I guess the info on the readme was not clear enough :)...
I've deleted the optional model in which, when the engine was turned off, the gear doors "relax" to open position (as there is no hydraulics power to keep them open I guess). I decided to delete it as almost nobody was using it, I had no time to replicate the changes I did to the default one and created some visual issues in multiplayer. Maybe it will be back in the next "final" update.

there are both 4:3 and 16:9 panels (you need to copy the one you need manually to the panel folder). This only affects the 2D full-screen HUD view. VC is unchanged.

alternate aircraft.cfg:
the a/c "tail" number can be changed by the user and is shown with FSX the default font. Should you have the proper font "LongBeach USN" (afaik payware) the alternate cfg uses it - the cfg has to be manually renamed and replaces the existing one.
 
After 1.51 contact points are a bit messed up..Wheels dont touch the ground. Dino ,love your work !!!
