Testing the A20 reveals a problematic glitch in the glazing, but I (just me, myself) can live with that until a solution turns up.
Matt, FCS produced a paint kit for the Lancaster. Have it in my repainting folder.
Not so sure if that blue glass is a model problem. Having the P3Dv4 dynamic reflections enabled is notorious for messing up glass/bare metal colours, it adds an ugly green/blue hue.
You can move the dynamic reflections slider to the "off" position, it is under Options > Graphics > Lighting. A secondary bonus is it will make the sim less demanding on the GPU as well.

For visceral flying, with a barely tamed Merlin... it's still hard to beat Rob & Sean's creation. I still tremble on final... all these years later... ta RA!
The B26 project is another install straight into P3D4.1.
Works better than I expected.
Runs around 60FPS in this fairly bland setting but seems to hold respectable rates over more dense environments.
Kudos to Milton and the team!![]()
That worked!

In a way, Carl, you can thank yours truly for that.. ;-)
You might remember that around the time before the RA iteration a few Spitfires were available but non of 'em of full blown all singing and dancing stature. As Rob (Young) and i were colleagues in the Maam-Sim residence and i have always been a Spitfire fan (i'd almost say, in aviation hobby circles, who's not... ) i often thought about the idea of RealAir doing a Spitfire. So one day, when i thought the time was right and just for the heck of it, i told Rob about my idea. Initially Rob bounced the idea off the table. RealAir being a strictly GA aircraft developer he saw no point in producing a militairy aircraft, not even a vintage and famous one like the Spitfire. Of course that was what i expected but i still wanted to give it a try. So now i did and it failed. Bummer.
Low and Behold, a few days later Rob emailed me that he talked my idea of a RA Spitfire over with Sean anyway and they came to the conclusion that it was not such a bad idea afterall. The rest is history.
cheers,
