  1. To keep Mc Carron up to date will we have the chargrilled BA 777 as a navaid?. Joking aside really looking forward to this, and have been for years, like many, but know I'll get lost. But as a(Legal) Alien (according to U.S. law) Does that mean I have previous permission to land in Area 51? Looking foward to taking the Hawk downtown to Las Vegas at low level
  2. I'm with you, it been a long wait, & I'm definitely older lol but it'll be worth it.
  3. Oh dear my wallets going to take another kicking lol, a Gazelle and a 105! Fantastic, really looking forward to those
  4. Brilliant, I'm a great fan of the Hornet, but just gotta get this one, Och the bank manager will be pleased lol Never seen so many pages of thanks on an announcement before, think this'l sell then?
  5. Hi Bunyap Thank you for the rocket tutorial, spent a very frustrating time just after downloading the jet, trying to get the rockets off the rails....we no read no stinking handbook...I did it first time. Came back next night....could'nt remember it at all LOL. So here i am 3rd night, best ways I get some education.... THANK YOU
  6. Hi Devrim, THANK YOU! Downloaded the 1.5 version last night, fiddled a bit with win7 and got it installed, BRILLIANT thank you. Ties in with my fiddling with the HOTAS to get the axes sorted so I can actually enjoy what has been a bucking Bronco. So I just need to get a decent english layout and I can follow it better, thank you
  7. Hi, Got to ask, has any one got a copy of the RAF Griffon skin that was on this site but has disappeared. Or do they know who made it It was yellow roof and navy blue exterior, based at RAF Shawbury for training Thanks in advance
  8. Hi Guys, That just proves that e-bay has no idea about trade descriptions ha ha. Ours was blue with a yellow roof, The Griffin looks like it was borrowed off the Police, but if it's good enough to train a prince, good enough for me. That thing is NOT RAF....MOD would never get enough money for the paint!
  9. Hi Guys THANK YOU for the Teeny Weeny Airways skin, it's brilliant. But I'm looking for an RAF Griffon skin. Give the Army the credit it looks cool Our's looks a bit like it was borrowed from the Police... But once an air force bloke always air force bloke. Any directions would be appreciated Thanks
  10. ANTONOV, AN-22 Antheus I would like to see the beautiful Antheus,, in the DCS World skies. I appreciate it would be an AI and almot NO chance of a flight deck. I'built the model some years back, weighed a ton, I've recently discovered some utube video and it still looks breathtaking. I will never pilot real planes, but I do enjoy the simulation of formating on the Il-76 and the Bear, to give it the once over, and would like some more of the Russian giants in our simulated skies. Just a thought,
  11. Lightning any but a 2 seater would be a bonus Jag - 2 seater is pretty (it was underpowered when fully loaded) Tornado GR4 Mirage, almost any Viggen TSR2 for the What if brigade Buccaneer - Carrier ops Harrier
  12. Apache for me and the Cheyenne if some one wants a 'what if'
  13. To Joey45, Devrim & Rangi, RESULT! Thank you Re the auto, no time to check switches, recall the rotors are already running and it took about 10 seconds to bang - no rotors Yes I set the switches to default, but then realised that my CDU's too count as buttons/axes, move the slider to the right on the options page,and sure enough there were buttons assigned to the axes, including collective and power. Deleted these and put the helo on the tarmac, solid thud thud thud of rotors turning....yeeehaaa Thank you gentlemen for your assistance Flyingscotsman
  14. Thank you Joey45, Collective at lowest setting, I have a button assigned to the power but can't get it 'down' fast enough before the blades come off, will fiddle some more Since my last post I have deleted my current version, brought my backup copy accross and it still did it So I did a re-install off the website and still the same. I can be flying or start from cold, it works but rotors running - 10 seconds now - bang no blades Will try your suggestion this evening when I get back from work thank you
  15. I have had this from the start in that with the rotors running on the runway there is a bang after 10- seconds and the blades fly off. End of flight I used to be able to fly again,and it would just work fine. Now it happens every time, or the runway from the parking lot with rotors running However it's ok to be at 'Turning point' just a bit hairy and you can cold start from the ramp I think the answer is to cut the power on the collective, because the same happened when I held the start button too long and the blades came off then Can we have fix that brings down the power....if I'm right Thank you:smilewink:
  16. Have hit a snag, downloaded skins from this site, then when starting the mission on the runway, the motors runs for a few seconds, bang - no blades. Previously I was able to restart the mission and it would work. Now it goes bang/stop every mission. Tried repair, still the same, now downloading the latest install version from scratch and will install again. Any ideas? - Brilliant sim, but just this bug Thank you
  17. Hello GREAT Sim, Thank you. Just tried the 'quiet' start up mission, got it going, but if you are a bit late in turning off the engine starter do yo all get a bang and the blades are parked under the helo. I take it thats a bad start/failure However, I do have a little problem when I first start missions I get the bang and the helo has no blades and of course will not lift off. But if you just restart the mission it works fine. No great shakes, does not bother me too much. Still rubbish at hovering but can now hover taxi but have to watch the speed, but considering a pilot learns to fly a plane firs and then the helo over about two years....not bad going THANK YOU to all involveld
  18. Got mine down after after multiple broken contacts, installed and flying...well of sorts, hand eye feet co-ordination of one legged drunk, managed an excellent flare on first landing...shame I fireballed it! 2nd & 3rd attempts much better, LOVE IT need to do some throttle adjustments.. THANK YOU
  19. EtherealN Thank you that did it I did kinda get there and then come back to find your excellent advice, It was the apache that screwed things up, so deleted that mod and replaced the ka-50 folder Then ran the update file as administrator Kinda like the apache but not so sure its worth it, Thank you again and to others who pitched in earlier in the day 1.2.3 is in and I'm back to being a flyingscotsman
  20. Have had cockpitka50.dll corrupt,. then the game crashes Done the anti virus -Sent off the error report to eagle.ru, Then took a copy from a backup I had, and placed it in the new 1.2.3 version, the A-10 at least loaded up and trundled off down the runway But Black shark will not load, game crashes with no explanation Ran the repair option as Adminstrator, back to the corrupt cockpitka50.dll Any ideas? Thank you flyingscotsman....in A-10 at the moment
  21. Error and crash on update 1.2.3 Spoke too soon, Error with ka-50 cockpit has been modified, then game crashes. Will get the error fileout and send it to DCS later this evening Have a copy of the original cockpit dll so will put that on after too Yes mine took ages to download firs time too flyingscotsman
  22. smithcorp, THANK YOU, Yes using your method worked, will use that in future, will test tonight after work again THANK YOU Flyingscotsman
  23. 1.2.3 fails to install, assistance please Hi, I disabled the anti virus, downloaded the patch via the autoupdater When I opened dcs world still has ver 1.2.2.7570 Have run repair dcs and it checked local files, downloaded update, verified install, installed successfully - still got 1.2.2.7570 Have tried to run DCS installer as adminstrator, it flashes for a 'blink' and the game loads Still on old version any assistance appreicated flyingscotsman
  24. I have bought/installed FC3 which goes into DCS World, I have removed MODMAN and all add ons, But since installation of FC3 on DCS World 1.2.2.2 the KA-50/A-10 take minutes to load from what were 30 second starts on flights I created ages back and have been fine. When they do eventually load the first few minutes is spent waiting for it to unfreeze and then find I'm in the air.... from a runway start I use Trackir and it will appear working but there have been moments when only the in cockpit view is available Definately a performance hit having FC3 installed I have checked my stick settings and cleared off any that could cause interferance. FCC3 is good but the frame hit is a pain
