There's a new FM for the Typhoon at http://members.nbci.com/fs_pilots This is a major rework and has been tested against performance stats. Only a few minor tweaks may need to be made. The write up on this update is at the site. Go to the bottom of the page and click on the Aircraft Files link. ------------------ ------------------------ Which end does the propeller thingy go on?

Yes it's the same one- the Tailwheel not retracting has been an issue for a while and is a problem in the PP 6 Tiffy too.To everyone tha's tested this bird, this is the same file I sent you, just a public release. IP: Logged |

I know why the tailwheel doesn't retract, but i thought it wasn't suppost to. If it is suppose to retract then it's a simple fix.I take that back, look closer at the 3D model it's not designed for the wheel to retract. It would mean redoing the back of the model before adding the simple fix. [This message has been edited by Razer (edited 05-18-2001).] IP: Logged |

Hmmmm,You're the first person to report a CTD, and this was tested by several people for almost 3 weeks. I've flown all the training missions in both the patch and the 1.5 version and several missions with no problem. Try deleting your cache files or load the training mission in the mission editor and resave it. IP: Logged |

I've seen a couple other probelms with the patch and old missions. People thought they were planes but not so.I set up a test mission where the axis & allies fly the same plane against each other. If there's a damage bug or some other problem with the plane itself crashing the patch, it will show up in this test. The Tiffy checks out ok. IP: Logged |

LOT'S of stuff will be done with her. This was an interim model we put out with the new FM so the Tiffy could be added to PP 6.1You know how it goes when trying to beat a deadline Razer- I know you've "been there, done that"  IP: Logged |
