Never mind rivets on the outside - what about the stud and nuts on the inside?!

Seasonal dynamic bugsplatters or I'm not buying...

Gif showing the work in progress tyre flex and suspension, Its a shocking landing but send your hate for the landing and love for the progress to loki not me:)

Have a happy new year all!

That looks amazing.

Perhaps its just the way the clip was procured, but maybe the tire should be just a little fatter? I cant put my finger on it, but I think its slightly narrower in real life. If the clip isnt distorting it of course.

Wartime tires had no tread and have a rounder shape than all of the surviving lancs

Tea, surely?

 

Bug report:

I’m having trouble opening the crew door.

I was awake all night lighting a flare path of scented candles in the hope I might encourage the chugging of a little tractor tug. Nothing yet. I did a whiskey repair, more than once but somehow got all my waypoints mixed up coming back from the kitchen. I haven’t stopped chanting mantras since about 03 hundred hours. I’ve been advised my legs may not be crossed properly and that maybe I could rock to and fro with more vigour but I just can’t keep my heels above my knees like I used to.

I read somewhere that doing repetitive star-jumps tarred in feathers can help so I’ll try those later. Once I’ve got enough feathers of course, I’m not doing things half-arsed. I’ll dust off the old recorder later too. It hasn’t been out of its case since primary school but I also read somewhere that whistling out a few pied piper style ditties on it (in place of a flute) could summon the hangar doors open.

Hope for a fix soon 🙂 🥸 🩺 💊

Additional testing happening with the bomb sight and terminal velocities, note the addition of the TV card on the top right of the computer

How’s this coming along Scoobs?

Cold mornings in the hangar here. Winter servicing almost done. Slots available at all my airfields, always room for an Avro 🙂.

All the best to the team.

Coming along nicely, we will put up a full update changelog in april, we have added the gyropilot systems as well as other smaller bits

Fantastic job, people. 

I'm really looking forward to this aircraft. I've been a WWII aircraft enthusiast since I was 9 and started building plastic models. I remember reading about the Avro Lancaster in WWII comics and I can't believe I'm going to get to fly it in a simulator! 

Thank you for your amazing effort.
