Since I have finally understood the bug with the passwords on the A2A store, I have been able to re-access my account, create a new account for my brother and finally buy the Spitfire I wanted to offer him for his birthday.
The goal was not only to make him discover Accusim (it was about time...), but also to be able to enjoy flying online with him with some serious realism.
And the results were even better than expected. Part of the fun was looking at him discovering what Accusim means for the first time. Sad thing is... he can't fly his older warbird addons anymore

Re: Screenshots
In the last flight, we were flying around Nice LFMN.
I did the mistake of trying to take screenshots in external view while flying low on our approach to Cannes Mandelieu.... my prop hit the water and got bent.
Fortunately, I was flying fast enough, just enough to make a last turn, gain a bit of altitude, and crash land on the airfield. My brother could see that the gear won't magically come out if the engine is dead...

Hi Daube.
At this moment i am flying the recently released AH Lancaster , with a few mods in the aircraft.cfg , as i found a few minor errors , but i will check later once in my A2A spit , but i seem to remember an emergency gear down , when the engine dies , on the right sidewall.
UPDATE
Ok just got into the same MK2 spit as you where in , i put the aircraft on jacks , retracted the gear .
Then i selected the gear down in the normal way , then on the same side as the gear down selector , you will see a silver cylinder with a brown handle , operateing this lever , you will here a hiss , and the gear will come slowly down , if you have enough time it will fully lock down prior to landing , else you will be landing with gear not locked down , with a possible colapse of gear.
regards alan.

I didn't notice that emergency command... i'll have to double check to ensure I find it next time
Thanks for the tip.
