Thats right

Put it all on me


LOL

That works!

And probably best so we all end up with the same changes

Guys... I cant thank you enough for what you have done.. so far we have accomplished a lot with this bird


Bob:
As for a repaint.. Bob, I don't know if that will make it into the update or not at this point. Its a job to do that right and get all the markings clean. I will see if I can squeeze it in. If not I will upload a repaint for her ASAP after the initial release.

What I think I may do is get the file to Bob once we have finished all the tech and let him try her out. From there get feedback he may know from experience we don't about her handling. even riding with the crew below he should be able to tell if things feel right.

Hi Brett

I totally agree that we need for the want of a better word a team leader to coordinate things, I

Brett.. Forget the engine/eff changes. I just did the single engine hussle... I dont think thats going to get any better. Nice job on nailing that




Jim, I am not a panel expert and that is one area I am probably can not be much help however I will see if I can find anything on the Marlin. Bob70 may have some source data. As for matching, at this point I would not be too concerned given the original model but I would like to try and get everything calibrated and working that we do have, if possible.

I know there is a Martin marlin 130 out there made by Jens B. Kristensen but I do not know what the VC or gages look like.. I will see if I can dig that one up. I think its a AVS.... but I do not know if its posted here.



The FX are fun... Bob said they would churn up the water if it was too calm and thats exactly what those FX do.. and she will definitely churn things up with the flight dynamics as they are right now going around in circles

LOL!


I will see if I can come up with some source materials for the SP5B. Please dont knock yourself out rushing as there is no time constraint on this.

Hi Everyone

Well here are a couple of photos I found in my cruise book I copied. Don't know if they will be of any help to you. That's about all I could find.

I can't work on this until the AM.. but it shouldn't take long to test reversers.

As for ground-ops..  I can not only taxi (very carefully)..I can execute a no x-wind take-off the way it is now.

I will include a soundset for blown engine failure (piston clank) and also one for the water on the boat hull for the bow FX in the finished package

Hi Nick

I forgot to mention that I had the Martin Clipper already downloaded, but I had not installed it.

After doing so, just to check out the panel set up, it seems that the author has gone for a mixture of the California Classics gauges and some DC3 gauges, but now I
