hm... I could attempt to install it on a stock copy of P3DV3? If it does it there, it could be an issue with a driver or something not liking it.

You're certainly welcome to try - there's no problem with having different versions of the Cherokee for different sims installed concurrently.

However, before you resort to that, might be worth listing any other P3Dv4 add-ons you have installed.

Excluding the scenery and aircraft:
EZDOK V2
GSX + GSX lv2
Tomatoshade
Lorby Flashlight
SODE
ORBX ObjectFlow
Thats about it for addons.

Thanks - can't see any obvious culprits there I'm afraid.

That really depends how much time you want to spend disabling, isolating or uninstalling stuff on your PC until you find whatever's it is on your system that's causing the issue. It's probably worth making sure your GPU drivers are up to date to start with.

Well, to be honest, its irritating but I dont think I care enough to uninstall and install addons one by one. I guess I'll just avoid looking at it. Thanks for the help.

Yes, sorry we can't identify the culprit at this stage, but with such a vast range of different PC hardware, software and add-ons in use, odd issues like this do crop up from time to time. However, because I've been unable to reproduce the problem with various graphics settings, I don't think it's an issue with the Cherokee itself.

Kind regards,

Yep, thats fair enough. I hope that some day I’ll find out whats doing it and be able to go “Ahhhhhh” and fix it myself. Thank you for the help.

Profs

Update (15/06/21):
I loaded in today and it's fixed itself. I havent changed anything since the last time I flew it so I honestly dont know why its fixed itself but Im not complaining.
