Re: B-17 Enclosed Home Cockpit Project

Just a suggestion but if you have some sort of vibrating table (or can make one) and sit the mould on that after pouring the vibration should drive the bubbles to the top. Even sitting it on a washing machine on the spin cycle with an uneven load may do it.

Re: Learn how to do a good repaint?

I have to ask this, but presuming most people wanting to do repaints have the deluxe version of FSX and thus the SDK, why do people insist on using Martin Wright's tool and not Imagetool for doing DDS conversion?

Re: Compliments and Paintkit

Check your weights before take-off Chris, the 377 comes in heavy and you will need to dump either fuel or pax to get airborne. In real life it was the same way, you could have full fuel OR full pax but not both. If you are using the British crew you will unfortunately get a lot of nagging from me fr...

Re: How many ways to die in flight?

The first time the chute didn't open for me sent a cold chill right down my spine. It was several minutes before I felt calm enough to continue. A very moving experience.

Re: P47 Joystick Configurator Error

Hello, (Lewis here, just visiting Tako so on his PC) Ive looked this over and over and I am so glad the BSOD has now happened as it helps us pin the problems.

Re: BF109 Paint Kit here

I cannot reach the page with the BF109 Paint Kit, and my search is not accepted at the SOH, even after the log-in. I would very much appreciate it if you could kindly explain how I could acquire this Paint Kit. I would really love to add variations of my own to your excellent BF109. Try this link.....
