    Bonjour Parpin!

    Pour te débarasser de ce tas de terrain, il te faut régler le mesh sur moins de 19 m (j'entends par là une résolution de la trame moindre, par exemple 38 m. Mais 19 devrait suffire!).

    Bons vols!

    Mitchell Wing issues

    in Aircraft General

    Posted

    Hi there!

    I have a couple of issues with my Mitchell Wing:

    1. Is it normal that I have to apply full power simply to start taxiing?
    2. When in virtual cockpit, I see this:

    Is this normal and/or is there a way to remove that green line? I'm using EZCA, by the way. Oh, and I see the same in the default Trike.

    Thanks in anticipation,

    EDIT: I found a better one (even though it's not exactly related to this case)

    "How the Occidental countries discovered the incredible STOL performances of USSR planes.

    Here's the transcription of a top secret recording of what happened once in a Soviet cockpit during an IFR approach to JFK:

    Captain: "500 ft. Poor visibility, the runway seems to be short. Copilot, set flaps to 30 degrees."

    Copilot: "Flaps set to 30 degrees."

    Captain: "300 ft. Poor visibility, the runway seems to be very short. Copilot, set flaps to 45 degrees!"

    Copilot: "Flaps set to 45."

    Captain: "100 ft. Extremely short runway !!! Set flaps and speedbrakes to emergency position - 90 degrees !!!

    Copilot: "Flaps and speedbrakes set to 90, ready to land."

    The aircraft lands, the pilots immediately slam on the brakes...

    Captain: (sweating and sighing) "Ohh gosh, how short these Western runways are..."

    Copilot: "Yes... (looking out the window)... But how wide !"

    5 freebies? Now THAT'S a great idea!

    Serious stuff now: I'd like to thank you, Mathijs, for your advice about the video card you gave us, humble simmers, quite some time ago. It made me buy one of the last ATI 4600 available. For me, it's just as good as a GTX460... Great FPS, smooth as silk, excellent visual quality, low price... No better deal!

    Cant find sound files.

    The rudeness came from not reporting back when you found your solution.So that it might inform and assist others and add to the body of knowledge. So thanks for correcting that. Why not complete your user profile so we know who you are?

    Dear Simon,

    I know my contribution here is late, but please take time to read this.

    His name is Iain Emms, and he's one of the finest, most friendly, humble and polite people I've ever known. His contribution to FS Community is enormous. I thought you would know that, being an ORBX forum member.

    Everyone of us has been a new forum member, at least once in his/her life. And sometimes, we post in a certain way, because we are used to do so. In this case, Iain may not have known that the activity over here is much lower than on ORBX forums, where you usually get an answer within the next hours. A newbie mistake, nothing serious, at least nothing serious enough to react the way you did. Now he's aware of all this. Let the new members a second chance, that's a behaviour which should be natural for everyone. Or, at least, be grateful he posted in the right forum, which shows he's making efforts.

    It's the first (and the last) time I allow myself to criticise you, Simon, because I hate such debates. Especially in a rather friendly community like this one. I simply cannot understand your behaviour. You're not 16 anymore, are you? Why do you over-react like a teenager?

    You're obviously very intelligent and knowledgable, that's why I respect you, as well as any other member around here. But I just don't and can't see why such a clever person would do what you're doing. There is a proverb in the country I'm from: "The difference between a clever and a sagacious person is that the clever one will manage to come out of complicated situations the sagacious would never run into." I suppose (I may be wrong, of course) that you use your rudeness to come out of these conflictual situations. You wouldn't have to do so, if you didn't create them.

    That being said, please know that I'm not against you. I'm against your agressivity and rudeness. Be patient, that's it!

    At Iain: please, come and bother us again, mate, it's no big deal. Unfortunately, you didn't get the most friendly member to answer you, that's the very least I can say. Don't worry, almost everyone is aware of him here. So come back if you need, mate!

    Regards,

    Just Fly.
