Merry Christmas John and thank you very much for the Prowler!

Massive thanks again John, now I need to sort through my AI sounds to find something that matches the ear explosion those old J-52s make on the catapult at full power! Next to Harriers, Prowlers are loud.

First off I want to say awesome model! Thanks John! I did notice a "glitch" I wanted to bring to your attention. I was doing some "AI watching" just now and I noticed that the Carrier_Load 4 model is intermittently missing the wheel from the right main landing gear. The wheel was missing while the aircraft was parked; it taxied out with the wheel missing. The wheel did appear for a split second while the aircraft was taking off; but disappeared again before gear retraction. Upon gear extension for landing the wheel was still missing it re-appeared for a split second on touchdown and then disappeared again. I am attaching some photos so you can see what I am looking at. As a FYI this is in V5.3; however, from what I can tell the other carrier model is not having this issue. Thanks

Thanks for that. Found the problem.

All aircraft in whatever MS sim, operate with two wheel types on the same axle (called Tyres). The first one is a "still" wheel that displays when the aircraft is parked or moving on the taxiway. When it goes faster, in the take-off run for example, the "still" wheel disappears and a "blurred" wheel takes over. Each wheel type has a different texture.

In this case the right "blurred" wheel is visible at speed, but the corresponding "still" wheel is missing completely. I have corrected that this morning and uploaded a version 2 zip.

Sorry about that.

John

Could somebody please send me a copy of the land based wing fold models. For some reason I can't download them from John Youngs cloud setup. Just PM me with an email.

Regards Paul Day.

Paul, you can find them here at the download center.


From mobile hence short

Thanks for that, I thought they would be in the updated model release.
