Wonderful package, huge thanks to all involved!! One question - where should I park my Lancaster? Should it live up near the north west-ish area where the Spitfire and Hurricane spots are, or doesn't the Lanc live at Coningsby now?

BTW, useless piece of information, the nice new control tower that was built at Coningsby a little while ago - about three years I think? - I bought the steel that it was built from - company I work for was involved in building it! I knew I'd find a claim to fame somewhere!!!

How about the auto-installer, what do you guys think (likes vs. dislikes)?

Did a manual install as usual, the new auto-installer is just as easy to use that way as before, if not easier. Certainly quite happy with this method, but as I always "do a manual" I never had a problem with the old installer either.

Tried the new installer yesterday evening

works great

but most of all the package is outstanding

Congrats to all involved

Fantastic package, thanks guys

I too did a manual install, was nice and easy.

One thing I did notice though when I double clicked on the .exe file, it did not automatically find my Flight Sim folder. As I say this was no problem for me as I was doing a manual anyway, but maybe a newb doing an automatic might have issues. With me it is simply that I have a German version of Windows, so my FS resides in C:\Programme and not in C:\Program Files. This is a very minor detail I know, but maybe a hassle for the uninitiated with foreign language Windows?

Cheers
Jack

I am going to try and make it pick up the FS folder. Still working on that one!

Not a problem Barry, you've done a grand job as it is. I just thought I'd point it out since you guys have obviously gone to great lengths to make an installer suitable for all tastes

Cheers

Was looking around Warton and spotted IPA1 had its reg code in grey on the fuse! *insert image of shocked looking Igorski*

Download

Puts it back on the fin, in white.

Pity we cant have it carrying the 6x paveway loadout.. it was afterall the first Typhoon to every carry that much weight.

Well theres no reason why it cant mate, you'll just need to ammend you're own files. There is a fully loaded model with 6xpaveways in there.

Thanks for the spot and fix by the way.

IPA 1 is a twin seater

no heavy models for the twin.

Has anyone else had a problem at EGXC with traffic exiting the runway and then just sitting at the hold short until they disappear? Not sure if it's a problem with the AFCAD or something peculiar to my system.

btaylo24 · Post by **btaylo24** » 09 Jun 2007, 02:08

Hi

Its not something I have seen, or was seen during beta.
Are u using MAIW scenery (no other, and no duplicate AFCADS)

Is it hapening all the time?
And where about are you seeing this?

Anyone else have this issue?

Alex,
Also are they exiting left towards the pan or right towards the HAS sites, or both?
