Just Flight/AH DHC-3 Otter released!

OK have the flap issue sorted. The AH seems to have fixed itself after a reload. The jerky throttle response has been fixed after applying the dynamic head movement changes suggested here

My only real criticism is that I do think the overspeed jerking about should be removed. In real life the aircraft (any aircraft actually) would not have started to jump about when the max speed for cruise or for structural damage was exceeded. I know it is an FSX thing but I have never flown an aeroplane that buffeted at the critical VNE speed, they just get over-stressed and are therefore likely to break but they do not behave any differently apart from stiff or heavy controls at high speeds.

Time to get to know this one in flight for awhile.
 
We'll take a look at the jerking issue to see if it's something that we can resolve/improve.

Thanks

Anyone interested in doing some Aussie Otters?

Eye trouble and unsteady hands have stopped me from doing repaints at the moment so I was wondering if anyone is interested in doing some VH-*** Otters.

1 ATU Crest?

Hi all,

working on the RAAF Otter repaints and i was wondering if anyone could point me to a good sharp image of the 1 Air Trials Unit crest... google has not been my friend so far. I have got a decent shot of the ARDU crest, but I fear it may be different.

All assistance gratefully received.

Mike
 
this one?

Yes, that's the one. Trying to find it not as a patch is the trick, but that will do at a pinch - thank you.
 
This is from a decal pack if it is of any help.:engel016:

Nearly done, but some of the struts are eluding me still.

I also need to tidy up the black trim at the bottom.

When I've found and whitened those bloody struts, I'll have finished 390 and 392 - ready for upload.
