Re: Left Window Operation

Thanks, Mitchell.

I could imagine then, with some hard landings or turbulence, the window is going to "auto-open" once in a while.

Re: No stall sound?

Not sure if it's a problem, but I do not notice much other sounds going on in the cockpit when operating other stuff, particularly the wind sound either not showing up or it gets drowned out by the engine sound. I had already set the engine sound to just 20%, with all other sounds set to 100%.

Left Window Operation

I find the sliding left window a cool feature, but I'm puzzled as to how it operates and holds up in place on its own in the real world. Any idea?

Where Is The Oxygen Readout ?

The checklist calls for the Engineer to check on Oxygen Pressure, but I was not able to locate any oxygen gauge readout anywhere in teh B377.

Anyone knows where this readout may be located?

Instrument Layout Difference

Noticed the panel layout modelled differently from that of the real Cub as shown in the various videos. Any reason why this is so?

Re: Coordinated Turn Technique

Thanks, Scott. Will try these out when I get to fly again later.

Now which one should I fly in next -- P47 or B377 or Cub since I have them all ? Sigh ... so many planes, so little time.

Coordinated Turn Technique

In the Cub, with no turn coordinator, how does one knows how much rudder to push since there is also no "seat-of-the-pant" feeling?

Re: No stall sound?

May I know what are the various recommended sound level settings?

The engine sound seems to drown out much of other cockpit sound, and I'm a little reluctant to tone down engine sound as I like that too.

Re: Problem - Prop Not Clickable

Thanks for that. Just saw that at Sim-Outhouse. Was trying to find in manual but couldn't find. Maybe I missed it earlier.

Problem - Prop Not Clickable

Foremost, I'm getting more impressed with A2A each day. Bought the P47 earlier this year, and now within one week I bought up their B377 and now, the Cub. For the cub (with Accumsim ON), I can't seem to mouse click the prop, and therefore not able to do any manual prop start. This happens whether fr...

Re: Landing the P-47

Hi Mitchell, Thanks so much for clearing up on my doubts; I've been trying to come in steeper than usual to try and keep the runway in sight for as long as possible. I must say it feels a lot like dive-bombing though ! I'm so impressed with the way A2A makes the models, that I actually went on to bu...

Re: Landing the P-47

I have followed this thread with great interest, and am thankful for the fantastic, lengthy advice offered here. It's a show of great passion certainly. I like flying the P47 a lot, and am getting better at landing it. One gripe I have is this --- as I do not have Track IR, I find the gun-sight/fram...

Re: About Accusim failures & understanding

Hello, been away for some months and I'm itching to get back to this masterpiece. About the various failures and wear / tear discussed here, may I know are these all simulated to accumulate over time, even in newly loaded FS flight session in the P47? I remember in one payware KingAir, there was a u...

Re: Cockpit Vent or Defroster?

My understanding is defroster introduces warm air (from engine) into cockpit, while the vent introduces fresh air from the outside. That being the case, during ascent into cooler air, canopy fogging should happen on the inside (wet inside) due to still warmer/wetter cockpit air. Opening the vent the...
