BrentBeale 0 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I am downloading the full version now as I had been waiting for this patch to be completed. Will the downloaded version be v1.1 or should I also get the patch? Thanks Brent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn 873 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Download the patch. I´m sure the download version still is 1.00. Unzip to a temporary folder and copy all content into Your "Microsoft Flight Simulator X" main folder. And You are good to go. We where late today getting the 1.10 update ready. Thats also why there is no installer, but just a .zip file. We thought that alot of users would be happy to get it before the weekend. And by the way Privat-cowboy "needed" it for his new FTX :-D Regards Finn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwolb 0 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Yea, I just got FTX and love flying the TWOTTER downunder now. Thanks for the quick work, should be a great update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian S. 0 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Thank you for all of the hard work and effort to make this stunning plane even better. This is precisely why I feel comfortable buying from Aerosoft! 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrostro 0 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Thank you for your diligent and dogged pursuit of quality. This aircraft is now pretty much one of three favorites. No 1 position is my ATR 72-500. But the Twotter is giving it competition for that spot. Aerosoft, though is my most trusted company. Are you trying to steal Hans?

Finn 873 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 If You mean Hans Hartmann. Look at the Loadmanager, thats actually his work ;-) So we don´t steal Hans, we cooperate with him, cause Hans is his own ! Finn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fushi 0 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Gentlmen, What do these % mean? Manual page 26: Takeoff: 10% Takeoff Max STOLE: 20% Enroute Climb: 0% Landing: 37.5% Landing Max STOL: 37.5 Sincerely, Kan-ichiro Fushihara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn 873 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Takeoff 10%: should have been 10° Flaps Takeoff Max STOL: should have been 20° Flaps Finn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fushi 0 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Thanks. Isn't it 40 but 37.5? Furthermore, the dhc6-300-wheel_ref.htm describes: Normal Approach, Flaps 20 STOL Approach, Flaps 40 Sincerely, Kan-ichiro Fushihara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbearsailor 9 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Thanks. Isn't it 40 but 37.5? Furthermore, the dhc6-300-wheel_ref.htm describes: Normal Approach, Flaps 20 STOL Approach, Flaps 40 Sincerely, Kan-ichiro Fushihara It says 40 on the indicator in the plane (real one too) but it is actually 37.5 degrees. When I flew it, I used 20 on long runways (but that was usually the copilot's leg so I didn't see many long runways :shock: ) and I used 30 on the short ones. For me 30 was the best compromise: if things went wrong and a go around was necessary it was easier to transition to climb from 30 and also the airplane tended to not float as much for the landing. Other guys did it different ways, but most pilots I flew with did not use 37.5 routinely. cheers, steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwolb 0 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Wow, nice update, fixed everything that was on the list, and more, perfect. THanks very much, I now know how I will spend the weekend. And since we have a major snow blizzard in Ohio/USA where I live, I don't even have to goto work today. Even more time to fly this great plane.

Andy B. 40 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Damn, missed that spelling error, no big deal, we are collecting a few last issues based on what we see here and we will include that. No amphibious version planned, sorry. He isn't talking about a spelling mistake, it was a coincidence that he happened to spell British wrong. What he means is the BA motive logo on the left hand side of the twotter is mirrored, the motive should be at the front of the plane on both sides. It should be like the second image.
