..... but you can't have it both ways.* ;)



*PS. I'm sure our Foz will make something out of that. :o :D

**PPS. Directly into wind if possible.


..as the Actress said to the Bishop... ;)...!

...and breaking wind during such an excitable activity is a definite no-no.... :o...!

...(The humour never stops Doug, trust me)... ;)... ;D....!

Whoa!? Lower them? How do I do that?

This two-minute Youtube video demonstrates how  to deploy the G21A tip-floats precisely 18-seconds into the video.

i understand that as the plane intially hits the water, there should be a bit of drag, then it would flow normally...  yes, using reverse thrust is what should be done, however, in real life, unless u angle the pitch of the props to not blow at all, the plane should stay relativly stilll...

but wats that mean to u, nothing really...  just proves that fsx's water should be a little bit more like fs9's.  i should know, i've sailed around a bit...
