Two little gems

[dhasdell]

Dave Molyneux's Blackburn B-2 G-AEBJ, which has a very good reflective finish, and Keith Paine's Civilian Coupé G-ABNT "Bunty". Both work perfectly in FSX.

Thanks for the 'plug' glad you like it .
Cheers and ATB for the new year.

BTW - Keith & I met up at Old Warden to say ' Hi' earlier this year.

 

[dhasdell]

Old Warden was where I took those shots! I haven't been there for years in real life.

Yes, I do like the B-2. Thank you.

Happy New Year to you too.

David (H),
Thank you glad you enjoy her, but can you fold her wings in FSX, 'cos I cannot, but I can Dave M's!
Keith

 

[dhasdell]

No Keith - it's the same for me.

I think I've got too many other moving bits for it to work in FSX, same problem with my Proctors.....

Hi Gents - don't like to upset you but ...

Folding wings in FSX ? not a problem here using the correct key strokes. Cntrl f9 is the setting in my sim.
I've also been using this in FSX with my Fairey Fulmar which has a lot more animations, so don't get side-tracked there Keith.
Cheers

Not to worry - wing-folding only really matters on flight decks!

A memory from Old Warden: the first time I went, after the Pup flew, there was a call over the tannoy asking if there were any former Pup pilots present, and a couple came out from the crowd and had a close look at the aircraft.

 

[Dev One]

Hmmmmmm Dave M - I wonder whats different in my FSX set up, because as I said I can fold your B2 wings in FSX & using the same command of course I cannot fold Bunty's!
Keith

EDIT
Now here's a howdey do....I am at the moment trying to get the FSX SDK to show the gmax gamepack, which it won't. Anyway my tower now has only FSX vanilla installed & have just tried the wingfold, & it works for both Bunty & a Proctor, but my laptop has FSX + Acceleration & wingfold will not work on Bunty or a Proctor, but will on the B2. Any ideas folks?

[dhasdell]

Mine is the same: shift+w works for the B-2, but not for Bunty.

 

[molyned]

Ah, sweet mystery of life ! Here we go again Keith. It's not the first time we've come across odd setup differences between iinstallations , is it ?
BTW for the record I'm using FSX Gold edition with SP1 & 2 installed, but not acceleration.
Cheers

I'm running Gold with Acceleration. Sounds like that might be it.
