Flap Vortices

I added flap vorticies to the Bronco.

They are not perfect but do add something.

They need to be more volumetric

Only works in full flaps and 75 kts and above. I may lower that.

Perfect for those high humidity landings.

Looking forward to their response.

In the mean time I refined the gauge a little.

Works with full flaps and only between 45 kts and 125 kts.

I used 45 as the bottom limit because you should have landed and slowing down.

Didn't want this to be buried.

It has been refined somewhat.

It will only display the vortices when the flaps are full down and when indicated air speed is between 45 and 115 knots.

If there is an interest I will upload.

Thanks JB for finding my error and testing it.

Only on WET High HUMIDITY days will you gain even a notion of a vortice, The propwash is so intense, that if you generate a vortice, it generally comes in propwash, and then maybe for a second or two........ It makes pretty eye-candy........... that's where it ends. Delta
