Veteran's Memorial Airpark, AKA Meacham Intl. Just North of the Stockyards which are also a fun sight in Ft Worth. Got a great tour when I was there last Spring. I have forgotten the gentleman's name, but he was a wealth of knowledge and very enthusiastic (even if he was a former Navy pilo......I mean aviator).

Jim, Finn, I've been out to the Bronco Association's great museum in Ft Worth. Perhaps you could work out a distribution deal where the boxed version of the Aerosoft Bronco could be sold in the museum's gift shop. BTW, if anyone on the forum is ever near Ft Worth, I HIGHLY recommend a visit to the museum. Very nice grass roots, hands on stuff there.

You're probably putting a lot of load on that starter if you normally start in anything other than full fine pitch. I too have had the flickering gen light. A repair in the mx mode fixed it for me no problem. As this is a VFR only airplane, you can probably get away with flying it to failure though. If it fails completely, you should have enough battery to make a couple of radio calls and land at a suitable field for repair.

Please forgive me if this is being discussed elsewhere but I was wondering if anyone in the know had a status update on Marcel Felde's Porter 4X project? There are some great screeens on his website that appear to show a product that's well along in development, but no updates for several months now. I've been eagerly awaiting this one! Thanks.

Gross.

Thanks for that!

Finn, I understand why you only want to do one cockpit, but I'd like to add a big "2" to dduce's request for a kollsman window callibrated in inches. It makes life much easier for those of us operating in North America. Does FSX even give the option of having altimeter reported in HPa?

1. Measuring stick forces 2. Don't know, but the smart people before me seem to have answered this 3. B-25 Mitchell over Tokyo 4. Kate torpedo bomber

Ha! MUC, I missed that. (My German is awful, but I caught your meaning) That livery could only be a TWA Connie.

TWA

Seems like about a 1000ft ground roll when full flaps, full reverse thrust and max braking are used. 80-90kts on approach with full flaps.

First off, great airplane guys. Loving the flight model, systems fidelity, and performance on my moderate machine. Wondering if there are any plans to expand the manual or release a real world POH or Tech Order? Mathis, I read your comment about not getting wrapped up in the charts for this bird and I agree with you, but.....It would be nice to have: 1. An ops limits section; Single engine climb speeds, flap limiting speeds, stall speeds, temp limits, oil pressure limits, etc. And 2. At least some basic charts; Cruise performance (how far can I fly until I run out of gas?) Takeoff and landing distances, etc. As stated, with the fidelity of this model, I have no doubts that a real world T.O. would work seamlessly with this addon. Anyone know where to get one?

BTW, Marcel, since you're around these days, any words on the Porter?

Ran an inspection yesterday and found that the flight controls and airframe needed attention. The only thing I could think of was that I hadn't properly buttoned it up or tied it down on the previous flight. So....if you leave the airplane exposed to the elements, does it now incur damage?

That makes sense. Pretty much negates the need to ever slip the aircraft which is a shame in the sim since the flight model is so good. I'm guessing most approaches are made with partial flaps in real world ops?
