Hi all, with apologies.

For some glitch I have not been able to isolate, the flaps animation on the C-2 and D-2 Thunderbolts has become erratic. Most of the time the command to lower flaps fails. I have traced it to the air file but was not able to isolate it further. I have made a new air file which works consistently to fix the problem. While I was at it, I had the wrong propeller modeled. I learned that the paddle blade Curtiss prop didn't appear until the P-47D-22-RA production block, So, I have replaced it with the correct earlier Curtiss prop.

The original download C-2 and D-2 have been deleted and replaced with version v.2 downloads.
