Cool Stuff

I discovered that the flaps will not operate if the hydraulic pumps are not on.  Even cooler is that the emergency flaps switch does!  Find anything else surprising?

Fuel dumping is cool! Especially because you need to lower two small hoses/pipes first.

I love the engine start procedure, because you have to set the cut-off levers to "start" instead to fully open in order to start the engines. Didnt find anything like that in another FS-plane!  Grin

And the electric-system is working very well, just havnt found the radio-master switch so far... Using the key-command so far. First I thought the FD and AP wont work at all, until Ive found out to switch on the avionics-master switch.  Roll Eyes

And the weather-radar is top-of-the-notch! It looks awsome, great work on that one!!!

EDIT: Forgot to mention the working circuit-brakers in the overhead-panel!  Smiley

Hehe, thought that too! Those days were a bit different from today.  Cheesy

Also like the moving stuff in the cockpit, like the hat or the oxygen-masks. And the engine start-effect is very cool! I like the flame and the smoke coming out of the engine when it ignites, really cool effect!!  Cheesy
