RE: New Airwolf

[webberernie]

Has anybody else had their system crash trying to use the new Airwolf? right after I pick it the system loads everything like normal but then force closes. never had this happen before. I even downloaded it from two different sites and the same thing happens. Anybody know why? it looks like a great bird.

Well it's not so great in the end. I have downloaded it to test on FSX, since the model looked interesting. I had many surprises:
- no specific sound, they are aliased to the default 737
- a rather strange variant, with side windows (never saw that in the TV serie...)
- and worst thing of all => no virtual cockpit, which meant a direct deletion from my hardrive.

I believe there is another Airwolf model here at Simviation, complete aircraft with a virtual cockpit => http://www.simviation.com/fs2004helicopters11.htm
There's even a sound pack here => http://www.simviation.com/fs2004helicopters12.htm

Wow danube, you had all the same problems that i had too. so it wasn't my system. The ad says it has the vc and from what I see a complete package but its far from that. I tried it in FSX too and worked just like you said. He seemed to take some liberties with a few things. I personally think he should make it exactly like the lady was. Since your in the cockpit we can't see the rotors stop and fold back into wings so I guess that could stay. But get rid of the other things like the see-through plexiglass side panels and the rear trap door. The model is very close and if you dont look at these problems she is otherwise a really good ship to fly. I hope he fixes the problems and takes our advise on these problems. let me know if you come up with anything else. thanks again .   Ernie

I will change the info from that given by the author. It's not accurate.

Thanks guys.

Here are those links on the new site BTW (how do people find stuff on the old site still?)
