quick question re. the new ditching model. is in that ref. to a belly landing? I have as of yet to get a niki (or many others) on the ground belly landing. I have set my niki down so gently at 80kias just to have it violently flip and give me a crash. It's to the point now that when I lose a gear, I won't even try to rtb. I KNOW i'll crash.
Just curious.

You got it boss.
If you wouldn't have said anything I was going to pass. I'll work it this weekend.

I was wandering what im doing wrong in the landing :)
Now its a confirmed Bug.

Log on with the test no problem. With the original problem I had dropped my external firewall at SBC as an experiment with no improvement.
The patch at that time solved it.
I had the SBC DSL "problem" that many others were experiencing at the same time.
No problem since the "patch" or with the current test.
flew for probably 2 hours with the test. No problems.
Hope this helps.

Russ still w/ us for the time being. About to ship out (dunno if that hush hush or not).
Gonz the poor bastage sold the family publishing firm and the sod is flying from golf course to golf course livin' it up. Met up w/ Gonz in Tulsa 'bout a year ago and watched the sorry bastage drop close to 4grand on strippers. FUN night.
Jason last i heard was holed up w/ a midget tawainese ewe and tring to figure out what that "itch" was from.
Me? still flying me trusty Niki o' Death and doing well.
(still mad that AW gave a base name to the JB's and not the WM's. durn it, we TRAINED ya's )

Test version seems OK here, no difference between running it and the other version except my FPS averages about 5 lower in the test version.

"didn't Nwbie teach you about the lovely Spit Mk. V? "
73,
I tried to take up one of those Fw's, the ground crew laffed, when I tried the BF109 the crew chief asked if I had any experience in whining about ho shots and responding for taking them, I said no, and he recommended i stay close to the ground in the SpitV, because it takes a certain leather hide to take and give the abuse, and I am way too fragile and way too nice a guy to get that reputation :)
So out of respect to you JB's I agreed with him.....
NwBie
:aok
