I've been flying the P.11 around and it's great! Some comments...

1) there seems to be no "body point" on the rear fuse - I can pull the bottom of the plane through the ground. I haven't tried upside down yet.

2) the wing's seem to be too tough. Try flying at about a 60 degree bank and letting one tip hit the ground. Maybe this is true of all planes?

3) there seem to be two body points on the bottom of the plane that let it "balance" when crash landed. If you break off the gear and then ditch, the plane will end up with the wings level instead of one tip resting on the ground.

That's it so far! Are you interested in doing the P.24? I can get the data for the Romanian version, and some paint schemes too.

Thanks Maury!

Truth be told I have a release update planed to address every point you listed...

In releasing, I knew there were a few "issues" nothing devistating, but non the less important. I have another project outside of FS that I'm working on and I really wanted to release a workable version to the community, whilst I wrestled with the new project.

So to answer your post... "Yes" I will b addressing all the listed issues.

RE: P.24

Actually, I've promised =eyes= that I would convert the P.11 to a P.24... It's actually about 80% there right now... However, I would appreciate and data you can provide me to complete the project!

Well I only really know about the Romanian "E" models (I think they used upper case, P.24E, unlike the P.11c). They used different guns, a licensed version of the Mistral Major engine (14K-C32) and bigger tires that could be used on soft ground. I'll try to find the stuff I dug up, I was working on my IAR.80 article when I found it.
