Thanks for the tip on this one Dave!  She's great, fun to fly, and the VC can't be beat.  Took her for her maiden voyage around Nantucket after visiting with Joe, Brian, and Helen.  Lowell did a little scheduled maintainance on her for me.  That guy's good!

Are you refering to the cast of Wings? lol, that was a great TV show.  Wonderful shots of a beautiful bird.

I haven't flown her yet as well, but planning on it tonight. Just one question : how do you flip the wings ???. Thanks for any tips .

You need to assign a control key to fold/unfold the wings.

Falcon, there's a small red knob on the right on main panel.  Point for a (+) or (-)

I actually assigned ctrl+shift+w to do it, but for the Antonov An-24.  It opens the engine cowlings.

So it came in handy when this bird came along...

Correctamundo, I knew someone would catch it!  Thanks for the comments!  By the way, where you at in KY?  I'm in Henderson.

Definately a beauty, and a fine handling aircraft with a decent panel! :-) Yay! ;-)
