 Ok so I have located the panel,  now for the next prob.  I get in the big beautiful US Navy Connie.  Set flaps set t/o speed v1, vr, v2 start my climb out and after about 2 min in the air she cracks like an egg.  climb speed is correct flaps and gear retracted,, everything is the way it should be then she shutter's two or three times.  the next screen of course aircraft over stressed.  I know she is a remarkable lady but I have never no her to be this delicate.   What could possibley be going wrong.  Yes I know the easy fix is to turn the crash off, but that wouldn't be any fun would it....

Is this a variation of Mike Stone's model?

If it is I had the same problem and what you need is my revised fde :D

I'll upload it to my website sometime this weekend.

For anyone interested, I'll also put up a new fde for the Meljet 777 which has a terrible autopilot (tries to dive into the ground for almost a minute after takeoff and when you get it in the air it fluctuates by +/- 50 ft in normal straight and level flight) and the Swedline Saab 340 (autopilot...what autopilot????)

 Thanx Roller! It sure is that model. .  Strange isn't it I would sure like that fix.  I am fly rite now with crash disabled but that is never any fun especially on those tough landings and take offs ;D.  I tried an older airfile  it fixed the overstress prob but made the controls real mushy..... The file was from the twa super connnie from calclassic.  I would appreciate your fix when u get it uploaded thanx again...   Thanx to a fellow simmer my love affair with the Connie remians. .  to bad my wife gets jealous.........

 Thanx again Roller ;D.  Its good to have her flyin again,     My son and I were getting quiet frustrated he has grown to love her as much as I.   Not quite old enough to fly the big un's but he makes for a good co-pilot/ flight engineer for those long hauls.
