I recently read, ( and cant remember where) about the Harrier not hovering, ie, keeps going in a forward motion, I also have this problem, the article advised two things, 1) lessen the amount of fuel on board, and 2) it advised a file be installed, the name of which I didnt write down, anyone any idea,s on this.....TIA

Ken. I believe this is what you're looking for. http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1304425049/15

Although not the exact same document I read but very very similar, the one I read gave a file name ( as I say in my original post) I failed to make a note of, anyway, im going to get the file mentioned in the post you sent and see what happen, cheers

I re-found the file in question, it is FSUIPC4, I unzipped it and read the text files, and to be quite candid, I simply didnt understand a single word I read so I didnt do the install, anyone any idea what this file is about, as i say in my original post in this thread, I had read this file was evidently required in order to Hover VTOL aircraft, having read the documentation Im not so sure, so I,ll hold back and let the experts out here advise...Cheers all

FSUIPC is needed for many FS applications.
You can trust it

FSUIPC is a powerful tool , but I agree with you the text is difficult and requires  a lot of time and effort.
I tried reading it and fortunately gave up very early on.
However just having it loaded enables or facilitates instruments or processes .
Load it and check your    Hover you still need to dramatically lower the fuel to get a vertical take off.
Make sure you have also loaded the  Harrier hover package from memory its  rcbhc-15.

Correction .
The  FSX  VTOL / Hover package for the IRIS  Harrier is file rcbvcb10.zip  it is freeware.
