Hi Gents

I or better the 757 lost the "centertank" during installation of Block F? Anything I should know about this.

Is it possible to save situation (Cold and dark) or panel status? Is it possible to get the OH to a second Monitor?

Help is wellcome

My centertank is available in the simulation, without any editing, so it should be there. If you are missing it, here is the entry:

[fuel]
Center1    = 2.0,   0, 0, 6924, 0                 /
LeftMain  = -0.4, -25, 0, 2176, 0                
RightMain = -0.4,  25, 0, 2176, 0               
fuel_type = 2                                  
number_of_tank_selectors = 1                   
electric_pump=0

For easier cold and dark.  Load up the C172 and shut everything down EXCEPT AVIONICS.  Then 757 will be CND.

As for undocking windows - it looks like we'll need CS's help on this one.  I would like to use a 2nd monitor for information sources like FMC.

Hi tasev

I found the mistake: In my Fuel section in the aircraft CFG file there was a ";" before the Center tank, so FS could not read the Center

So this is solved


BUT: the flight characterisitc is completely different since the update and for me it is simply unflyable. I dont know it is htis way because when I only had the "base pack" installed I tried the Plane several times and it flew really great (Yoke and pedals) but now it is completely uncontrollable for me ??
I have no Idea, and each time  starting  again with Cold and dark/Meigs field just to find out that it is still not flyable.

Its a pitty

frustrated

ok, so what do you mean by uncontrollable?  What exactly does the plane do?  I have no problems with it.  Is it maneuverable?  you bet.  And its supposed to be.

Hi
when I installed block B first, I had great a flight attitude on manual steering. After installing Block B, Block F, ACE and Sound (in this sequence)  there was this problem with the centertank and absolute unflyable behaviour of the plane (each time stalling and  uncontrollable tumbling/turning etc.) Now I installed again without ACE and: its going fine again.
Should I try with the new V2.0 version of ACE again?? I will wait for SP1 Block F maybe.
This planes has a lot of potential.

BTW in instrumented flight after reaching cruise altitude I had overspeeds several times now!! BUG? or ma mistake somewhere?
