Haven't flown this one for a while. Rick's Jetstream in P3d.

:lol: :lol:

That's a coincidence Dave.. I took them out for a spin last week for the first time in what seems an eternity.

Incidentally (and slightly off topic).. I've flown Rick's Chipmouse and Foxbat and noticed the props disappear behind trees. I can't remember this ever happening before. Chippie is v3 (FSX) and the Foxbat is native FSX anyway. Does anyone else see this?? One thing I've thought of that has made certain graphical changes is ASN which changes the default shaders. Might that be responsible for it?

I think this was standard fair with Ricks early stuff in FSX mate. I think (but may be wrong) it was due to the early version of FSDS that was used. *-)

Okay matey.. just can't recall ever seeing it with the Chippie and Foxbat before (though in all honesty.. the Foxbat only gets a showing once in a blue moon). Good job I don't bet.. I'd have lost money on that :lol:

The Chippy is still FS9 format Dave, so you will get the prop issue. It was only FSX compatible, not native. Rick was making a native version, but it never got released.
Not sure about the Foxbat, I haven't got that installed at the mo.

Clearly I am as dim as ditchwater but I cannot find those Jetstreams anywhere, plenty of links to the PAD one but not the Piper one. Who can assist this ninny please?

Err.. it's an unfinished model that was never released Alex :worried: It looks fine from the outside (though Rick would undoubtedly disagree!!) but the flightdeck is unfinished.

EDIT: Looked at the Foxbat on my WinXP machine and the prop is the same. My memory is well bu99ered :lol:
